Abstract
Human feelings are very complicated and it is not easy to evaluate them. Methods of paired comparison might be useful to evaluate human feelings because it is generally said that human feelings are nonlinear and methods of of paired comparison are considered to be able to deal with nonlinear problems. In AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) which uses paired comparison consistency of subjects” answers is judged using consistency index referred to as C.I. in short and threshold of C.I. on consistency of subjects’ answers is generally 0.1 or 0.15 by empirical judgment. This threshold has no theoretical or experimental ground. Here it is studied to determine proper threshold of C.I. comparing the coefficient of consistency which is the measurement on consistency of subjets’ answers in paired comparison.
