Interesting. Can you say more about how your mother's culture's way of handling conflict affects its members' rationality, in comparison to your father's?
Not really. Just going by the model, I would predict that if my dad was irrational, it would be because of a refusal to update beliefs, and if my mom was irrational, it would be because of not clearly defining her position.
However, my dad likes arguing and changing his mind, and I can't infer from my mother's equanimity that her own beliefs aren't specific.
I can predict that if I asked them, they'd agree that updating beliefs is a private matter, independent of the social details (?) of an argument.
