西蒙有限理性的心理资源稀缺论解读

Scarcity of psychological resources: A psychological perspective of bounded rationality

西蒙提出“有限理性”是对管理理论的重贡献。本文认为,西蒙的有限理性的概念是以心理资源稀缺论为基础的。心理资源稀缺论可以通过常识检验和采纳认知心理学成果得以验证和探讨。心理资源稀缺论可以细化为四个命题,即心理资源稀缺是决策的心理约束条件,心理资源可以借助交流与决策技术得以扩展,对心理资源的使用是决策过程的信息处理机制,心理资源的配置遵循效率原则和适应性原则。

To begin with an analysis of psychological mechanism of bounded rationality, this paper probes into the limitation of human beings?cognition capability. It is Simon's creative viewpoint to regard human beings' information processing ability as scarce resources of decision makers, and it's also the logical starting point of applied thoughts of his bounded rationality model——theory of the scarcity of psychological resources. Scarcity of psychological resources of bounded rationality model consists of four basic points. The author holds that the weakness of current research on bounded rationality model lies in lack of an overall and profound understanding about theory of the scarcity of psychological resources embodied in the model. Therefore, theoretically, this paper is of great importance.
