Abstract
The paper is concerned with establishing dominance in linear decision models, either multiattribute models or models of decision making under uncertainty. It argues that a simple procedure, based on an ordered metric concept, provides a straightforward way of increasing the chance of locating patterns of dominance among alternatives. One particular application which is explored is the appraisal of competing investments.
