| Abstract: | The Analytic Hierarchy Process suggests that one must decide whether to preserve rank due to acquired standard "should or should not" be by using the ranking procedure, or allow rank to take its natural course by making paired comparisons. The reason why rank can reverse in the AHP with relative measurement is clear. It is because the alternatives depend on what alternatives are considered, hence, adding or deleting alternatives can lead to change in the final rank. |
