Consumers are increasingly seeking information through Social Media (SM) platforms to guide their future purchasing decisions. Electronic Word-of-Mouth (eWOM) through the ever popular SM, especially among young consumers, can have great influence on consumers' perception and buying intention. In...

This work describes and discusses the implementation of AHP-Tutor, an Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS) that provides training in various methods of derivation of priorities from an AHP comparison matrix. The purpose of our system is to offer exercise problems. The corresponding theoretical...

Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is one of the most popular multi-attribute decision aid methods. However, within AHP, there are several competing preference measurement scales and aggregation techniques. In this paper, we compare these possibilities using a decision problem with an inherent...

In this paper, we use experimental economics methods to test how well Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) fares as a choice support system in a real decision problem. AHP provides a ranking that we statistically compare with three additional rankings given by the subjects in the experiment: one at...

The multidimensional measures of well-being, such as the OECD Better Life Index (BLI), are receiving considerable attention. We introduce a composite index that, departing from the current practice, accounts for societal relative appreciation for the considered dimensions. We apply our...

We propose a multidimensional spatial model to evaluate the well-being using the Better Life Index (BLI) in 36 countries according to a two-steps procedure. First, we position the countries as points in the Euclidean K-dimensional space in which each dimension is a specific aspect of well-being...

We propose a new methodology to employ composite indicators for performance analysis of units of interest using Stochastic Multiattribute Acceptability Analysis. We start evaluating each unit by means of weighted sums of their elementary indicators in the whole set of admissible weights. For...
