摘要: Pairwise comparison (PC) matrices are used in multi-attribute decision problems (MADM) order to express the preferences of maker. Our research focused on testing various characteristics PC matrices. In a controlled experiment with university students (N=227) we have obtained 454 The cases been divided into 18 subgroups according key factors be analyzed. team conducted experiments different size given from types MADM problems. Additionally, matrix elements by questioning procedures differing questions. Results organized answer five Three them directly connected inconsistency matrix. Various indices applied. We found that type problem and had impact However, not any order. Incomplete played an important role our research. makers behavioral consistency was as well analyzed case incomplete using indicators measuring deviation final alternatives score vector.
