In the paper entitled \u201cThe Category of Soft Sets\u201d, we studied the category of soft sets, and we proved that the category of soft sets does not necessarily have products. But, there is a mistake in the proof of this result. In this short note, we give a correct proof for this result.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3233\/jifs-220762","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,27]],"date-time":"2022-05-27T11:17:12Z","timestamp":1653650232000},"page":"5215-5219","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["A short note on the category of soft sets"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"43","author":[{"given":"M.","family":"Mobini","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, University of Sistan and Baluchestan, Zahedan, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S.S.","family":"Ahn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics Education, Dongguk University, Seoul, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"R.A.","family":"Borzooei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, Shahid Beheshti University, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","reference":[{"key":"10.3233\/JIFS-220762_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2201","DOI":"10.1007\/s00500-016-2135-9","article-title":"On the Category of Rough Sets","volume":"21","author":"Borzooei","year":"2017","journal-title":"Soft Computing"},{"key":"10.3233\/JIFS-220762_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"157","DOI":"10.3233\/IFS-141286","article-title":"The Category of Soft Sets","volume":"28","author":"Borzooei","year":"2015","journal-title":"Journal of Intelligent and Fuzzy Systems"},{"key":"10.3233\/JIFS-220762_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"19","DOI":"10.1016\/S0898-1221(99)00056-5","article-title":"Soft Set Theory \u2013 First Results","volume":"37","author":"Molodstov","year":"1999","journal-title":"Computers and Mathematics with Applications"},{"key":"10.3233\/JIFS-220762_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"338","DOI":"10.1016\/S0019-9958(65)90241-X","article-title":"Fuzzy Sets","volume":"8","author":"Zadeh","year":"1965","journal-title":"Information and Control"}],"container-title":["Journal of Intelligent &amp; Fuzzy Systems"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/content.iospress.com\/download?id=10.3233\/JIFS-220762","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,29]],"date-time":"2026-04-29T09:46:52Z","timestamp":1777456012000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full\/10.3233\/JIFS-220762"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,10]]},"references-count":4,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4"},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3233\/jifs-220762","relation":{},"ISSN":["1064-1246","1875-8967"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1064-1246","type":"print"},{"value":"1875-8967","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,10]]}}}
