Toward fuzzy reasoning in the behavioral sciences

Hans-Werner Gottinger

pp. 287-308

This paper attempts to demonstrate the usefulness of fuzziness for a methodology in the behavioral sciences. For this purpose, fundamental and interrelated concepts as those of a set, an ordering, a language and a system arc discussed. Several examples and prospective applications are given, in particular by showing generalizations of non-fuzzy concepts. There is a particular emphasis on applications in economics.
