“…RCT was first proposed by Becker (1976). In its development, RCT is used in various disciplines, such as political science (Zey, 2015), criminal justice (Bouffard et al, 2010;Purpura, 2019;Ray et al, 2020), information technology (Charki et al, 2017;Li et al, 2010), and marketing (Charki et al, 2017;Chen et al, 2019). RCT is used to explain social phenomena at the actor's level (Hechter & Kanazawa, 1997).…”

Concerning the effect of the 2019 coronavirus novel (COVID-19) pandemic on the global economic situation, this study examines the impact of customer attitudes toward negative Electronic Word of Mouth (eWOM) in their panic buying activities and switching barriers on customer satisfaction. This study also used the Rational Choice Theory approach as a foundation to explain the current situation in Indonesia regarding customer purchasing decisions and satisfaction. The questionnaires were distributed online to 691 consumers in various cities in Indonesia. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results of this study indicate that the attitudes toward negative eWOM have an impact on increasing panic buying activity and brand switching. Finally, the relationship between buying activity as well as brand switching toward customer satisfaction has significance. The conclusions drawn in this study will contribute to studies or research regarding Rational Choice Theory.

Heuristics and Biases, Rational Choice, and Sanction Perceptions*

2017

The relevance of several cognitive heuristics and related biases for rational choice perspectives on crime, and for perceptions of sanction risk, were investigated. We present findings from a series of randomized experiments, embedded in two nationwide surveys of American adults (18 and older) in 2015 (N = 1,004 and 623). The results reveal that offender estimates of detection risk are less probabilistically precise and more situationally variable than under prevailing criminological perspectives, most notably, rational choice and Bayesian learning theories. This, in turn, allows various decision‐making heuristics—such as anchoring and availability—to influence and potentially bias the perceptual updating process.

“…Además, la TER es práctica para varias disciplinas ya que explica elecciones del comportamiento humano del mundo real, en donde puede aportar sobre hallazgos neuropsicológicos y de cómo el adolescente puede observar gravedad en las decisiones tomadas (Bouffard et al, 2010;Fumagalli, 2020).…”
