Abstract
The main purpose of rational choice theory is to lay out in clear & transparent terms what conditions are necessary &/or sufficient for the validity of statements about consistent human behavior. Strong criteria for rationality are 'wrong' if understood as a positive description. However, their very strength provides a sharp guide for experimental social science's project of mapping the properties of individual behavior. Figures, References.
