Rational choice theory is supported by empirical evidence from various fields, including economics, political science, and sociology, which demonstrate that individuals often make decisions based on a cost-benefit analysis to maximize utility. Experimental studies, such as those in behavioral economics, show that people generally act in ways that align with their self-interest, even in social contexts. Additionally, the consistency of market behaviors and patterns in voting decisions reflects the predictive power of rational choice models. However, it is also recognized that cognitive biases and social influences can lead to deviations from purely rational decision-making.
