Abstract
This paper undertakes the problem of multicriteria decision support in conflict situations described as a noncooperative game. Construction of such a decision support requires the development of the noncooperative game theory to be generalized for the multicriteria case. New theoretical results in this case are presented. Features of the multicriteria noncooperative games are shown with use of a duopoly model in case of two goods and two criteria of each player. Concepts of the decision support are discussed.
