FONSECA PATRON, Ana Laura. Situated Cognition and Rationality. Towards an Interactive Ecology of Reasoning. Diánoia [online]. 2019, vol.64, n.83, pp.103-131.  Epub 13-Abr-2020. ISSN 0185-2450.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iifs.18704913e.2019.83.1618.

The relation between fast and frugal heuristics and the environment is central to the normative project of the ecological rationality proposed by the ABC research group. This is why ecological rationality has been considered as a situated rationality. This paper shows that even if ecological rationality can be seen as situated rationality, this does not imply a situated form of reasoning and, in particular, that the understanding of the ecology of reasoning in this proposal is as static as it is in the standard studies of cognition. Next, the article focuses on showing that characterizing heuristic reasoning in a way that allows us to understand how interactions with the social and material environment are components of the cognitive structure that ground our reasoning is a desirable and viable task, which would allow us to formulate an interactive ecology of reasoning.

Palavras-chave : bounded rationality; ecological rationality; heuristic reasoning; distributed cognition; practices.
