Marketing - Internet, e-Commerce / perceived risk on online behaviour

French term or phrase: logiques

The sentence is "D'autres travaux ont permis d'établir une typologie des stratégies de réduction du risque sur Internet faisant apparaître pour les consommateurs quatre logiques".

... indicating four logics (???) for consumers (I don't like the word) or
... indicating four tactics.

Tactics seems to fit here but I was wondering whether anybody had a better idea ?

Thanks.

Explanation:
I too often favour "approaches" for "logiques", but the context in this case appears to suggest "options".

four ways of reasoning by consumers..four ways consumers think about the Internet

Explanation:
careful: it you use approach, it sounds like it's the consumers approach to the Internet, and I don't think that is what they mean..

Their research has uncovered the fact consumers reason 4 ways about the Internet....That is not necessarily an approach to the Internet, is it?

I like keeping reason for logique...approach, in my opinion, dumbs down consumers and changes the French...approach would be approche in French and they didn't use that term..
