Measuring the Uncertainty of Human Reasoning
Michael Gr. Voskoglou · American Journal of Applied Mathematics and Statistics · 2013
Human reasoning is characterized by a degree of fuzziness and uncertainty. In the present paper we develop a fuzzy model for a better description of the reasoning process and we use the fuzzy systems’ total possibilistic uncertainty as well as the classical ’s entropy (properly modified for use in fuzzy environments) in measuring the individuals’ reasoning skills. Classroom experiments are also provided illustrating our results in practice.
