Which mental process relies on applying logic and drawing conclusions based on facts, rational information, and previously acquired information in order to reach a specific goal?

a. reasoning
b. thinking
c. decision making
d. problem solving

a. reasoning

Explanation:

The reasoning goes from one premise to one conclusion, through several other intermediate premises. In this sense, we can say that reasoning is a mediated or indirect knowledge, that is, intermediated by several others. Thus, it is the opposite of intuition, which is immediate knowledge. We reason or argue when we place assumptions that contain evidence in such an order that they necessarily lead us to a conclusion.

In other words, we can say that reasoning is the mental process based on the application of logic and the conclusion of facts, rational information and previously acquired information to achieve a specific goal.
