Large language models perform well on many logical reasoning benchmarks, but it remains unclear which core logical skills they truly master. To address this, we introduce LogicSkills, a benchmark that isolates three fundamental logical skills: (i) $\textit{formal symbolization}\unicode{x2014}{}$translating premises into first-order logic; (ii) $\textit{countermodel construction}\unicode{x2014}$showing that an argument is logically invalid by constructing a finite countermodel; and (iii) $\textit{validity assessment}\unicode{x2014}$determining whether a conclusion follows from a set of premises. Items are drawn from the two-variable fragment of first-order logic without identity and are presented in both English and a Carrollian nonce-word language. All instances are solver-verified with Z3 for correctness and non-triviality. Across conventional instruction-tuned LLMs, performance is high on $\textit{validity assessment}$ but substantially lower on $\textit{formal symbolization}$ and $\textit{countermodel construction}$, highlighting that high task-level accuracy can mask weaknesses in core logical skills. In contrast, recent reasoning-tuned models perform strongly across all three tasks, suggesting a more systematic logical skill profile.

我们扩展了结构化论证的$ASPIC^+$框架,以便允许应用的情况下,推理方案的可废止的参数。给定一个带有结论“$A$ or $B$”的论证,一个基于$A$带有结论$C$的论证,以及一个基于$B$带有结论$C$的论证,我们允许构造一个带有结论$C$的论证。我们展示了我们的框架如何导致不同的结果比其他方法在非单调逻辑处理析取信息,如析取默认理论或方法的基础上的OR规则(允许导出一个可废止的规则“如果($A$或$B$),然后$C$”,给出两个可废止的规则“如果$A$,然后$C$”和“如果$B$,然后$C$”)。我们提出了新的问题,推理的微妙之处defeably与析取信息,并表明其形式化是更复杂的比一个人会假设。
