The correct and most appropriate word that should be filled in the blank is 'errant'.
Explanation
All other words i.e. rational, reasonable, and good denote or refer to agreeable and pleasant qualities. Any one having agreeable or pleasant behavior is not warned.
The word 'errant' means 'not behaving in an acceptable manner'; so 'errant is the right option. Hence, the sentence should be written as shown below:
In spite of being warned repeatedly, he failed to correct his errant behavior.
