Correctness, Logik: is a property of systems or calculi, not of conclusions. A system is correct when all the statements provable in it are true. The system is complete when all valid statements in it are also provable. Completeness and correctness are complementary; they are complementing each other to adequacy. (R. Stuhlmann-Laeisz, Philosophische Logik, Paderborn, 2002).

See also truth, truth conditions, indeterminacy, systems, theory, fulfillment, satisfiability._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.
