Judgement is a cognitive process of establishing meaningful relationships between concepts through logical thinking. It involves asserting one idea over another, typically structured with a subject, an attribute (predicate) and a copula (the verb "to be"). Philosophers and psychologists see judgement as a fundamental aspect of rational thinking and cognition. The process allows individuals to integrate ideas, address current needs and make sense of complex information. Judgement intersects multiple academic disciplines, including philosophy, psychology and cognitive studies. However, the current article lacks comprehensive citations and may require a scholarly review to improve its reliability and academic rigour. The conceptual framework draws on classical philosophical traditions, particularly Aristotelian logic, which emphasises the fundamental structure of assertion and conceptual relation in human understanding.

Judgement is the process that leads to the establishment of meaningful relationships between concepts, which lead to logical thinking with the aim of achieving a meaningful integration that gives rise to a rational attitude towards the needs of the moment. In this case, judgement means establishing a relationship between concepts.
The nature of judgement is to affirm one thing from another, he says Aristotle. Judgement therefore has three elements: two ideas and an affirmation. The idea from which something is affirmed is called subject. The idea that is affirmed of the subject is called an attribute or predicate. As for the statement itself, it is represented by the verb is, called a copula, because it joins the attribute to the subject.
