Abstract: | This study presents a process analysis of multi-attribute decision making. the decision problems concerned the selection of the most suitable candidate for a job opening. The problems varied in terms of complexity, i.e. the number of candidates and the number of attributes used to describe these alternatives. Results show that with an increasing number alternatives, subjects (N equals 48) used fewer attributes for evaluation of alternatives, and made, on average, less references to the attributes. |
