Abstract
This paper introduces a fuzzy inclusion indicator derived from a connective aimed at modulating a fuzzy criterion according to the satisfaction of another one. The idea is to express that one is all the more demanding as to the degree attached to an element x in a set B as this element has a high degree of membership degree to a set A. The use of this reinforced inclusion indicator is illustrated in the context of database querying.
