| Abstract: | This paper compares the properties and performance of three weight elicitation methods. It is in effect a "second round contest" in which the Boltomley (2000) champion direct rating (DR) locks horns with two new challengers. People using DR rate each attribute in turn on a scale of 0-100 whilst people using Max100 first assign to the most important attribute(s) a rating of 100, and then late the other attributes relative to it/them. People using Min10 first assign the least important attribute(s) a rating of 10 and then rate the other attributes relative to it/them. The weights produced by Max 100 were somewhat more test- retest reliable than DR. Both methods were considerably more reliable than Min10. |
