Talk:Low-information rationality

A web search indicates that this concept is rarely mentioned on its own without also talking about Samuel Popkin and it seems likely this is not notable enough for its own article. Proposing merger into Samuel L. Popkin. MarshallKe (talk) 17:03, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

MarshallKe, the article suggests that low-info rationality is a form of the cognitive miser theory. That seems to be reflected in literature as well. Perhaps it could instead be merged there? Merging an idea to a person creates a bloated biography. Also, I would disagree that this isn't notable as it comes up a lot in literature - although perhaps at slightly modified names like "low-information decisions" and "low-information voters". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xurizuri (talkcontribs) 06:57, 13 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Merge into Cognitive miser[edit]

As above Low-information rationality and cognitive miser theory heavy overlap, and are best merged. Klbrain (talk) 12:37, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Given the lack of disagreement on both this and the previous conversation, I have merged the pages. --Xurizuri (talk) 01:26, 3 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
