Abstract

Emotional reasoning means the judgment subjectively basing on the emotional experience,which has tow opposite aspects: on one hand,it can make human thoughts be perfect,specially,with the difficulty of rational reasoning. On the other hand,it may result in the cognitive bias because of lacking of objective evidence. Basing on the methods as literature analysis,theory analsis and Delphi technique,This research analyzing the relative literature at home and abroad shows that the researches,in China,are focusing on the effects that emotions interfere in reasoning process in the range of logical reasoning,while the ones are regarding the emotional reasoning as independence of rational reasoning which characterizes logical in west countries. And the emotional reasoning is going as the different way of it with 12= 1 from the way of rational reasoning with 1 + 1 = 2.
