Abstract

The reasoning in economic activities has its own characteristics compared with the general reasoning researched by logic.The characteristics reflect in the following aspects.Firstly,it is the purpose of the reasoning in economic activities.According to the direct purpose of reasoning in economic activities,it can be divided into three different types,namely,cognitive reasoning,forecast reasoning and decision-making reasoning.Secondly,it is the complexity of the reasoning in economic activities,which reflects in the process of reasoning,the evaluation of reasoning and the test of reasoning.Thirdly,it is the volatility of the reasoning in economic activities.The premise,process and conclusion of the reasoning in economic activities are all uncertain,which necessarily leads to the volatility of the reasoning in economic activities.
