Abstract
Bipolar is one of the Multiple Attribute Decision Making methods, based on the concept of Bipolar reference objectives, proposed by Konarzewska-Gubała. The essence of the analysis in the Bipolar method consists in a fact that the decision alternatives are not compared directly to each other, but they are confronted to the two sets of reference objects: desirable and non-acceptable. Practical application of the method showed some its shortcomings. It may happen that a decision alternative can be evaluated as better than a desirable reference object and simultaneously as worse than a non-acceptable object. The aim of the paper is to formulate modifications of the classical Bipolar approach to overcome such difficulties.
