Preferred term

satisficing  

Definition

  • Satisficing takes place when an individual arrives at a decision that is good enough according to the information at hand. When a person satisfices, he or she is not necessarily arriving at the best decision but at one that is considered adequate for the achievement of the current goals. [Source: Encyclopedia of Business Ethics and Society; Satisficing]
