| Abstract: | In this paper a criterion is presented which permits the construction of blocks to be formulated as a quadratic programme. The method is applied to two illustrative cases: the pattern of elective choices by MBA students and the performance assessment of British universities. The method is shown to give results which are readily interpreted and, for the purpose of performance ranking, leads to a more realistic description of achievement. |
