RationalitéEn philosophie, en psychologie et en sociologie, la rationalité est un concept servant à définir et mesurer la capacité de raisonnement, telle qu'elle se manifeste dans un (ou des) comportement(s) humain(s). Plus précisément, le mot désigne la qualité de ce qui, dans l’ordre de la connaissance, est (c'est-à-dire relevant de l'usage de la raison, ou intellect) et de ce qui, plus rarement, dans l’ordre de la pratique, relève du raisonnable.
Bayesian epistemologyBayesian epistemology is a formal approach to various topics in epistemology that has its roots in Thomas Bayes' work in the field of probability theory. One advantage of its formal method in contrast to traditional epistemology is that its concepts and theorems can be defined with a high degree of precision. It is based on the idea that beliefs can be interpreted as subjective probabilities. As such, they are subject to the laws of probability theory, which act as the norms of rationality.
Basic beliefBasic beliefs (also commonly called foundational beliefs or core beliefs) are, under the epistemological view called foundationalism, the axioms of a belief system. Foundationalism holds that all beliefs must be justified in order to be known.
