Abstract
In this paper we propose a decision-making procedure where the agents judge the
alternatives through linguistic terms such as `very good', `good', `acceptable',
etc. If the agents are not con dent about their opinions, they can use a linguistic
expression formed by several consecutive linguistic terms. To obtain a ranking
on the set of alternatives, the method consists of three di erent stages. The rst
stage looks for the alternatives in which the overall opinion is closer to the ideal
assessment. The overall opinion is developed by a distance-based process among
the individual assessments. The next two stages form a tie-breaking process.
Firstly by using a dispersion index based on the Gini coe cient, and secondly by
taking into account the number of best-assessments. The main characteristics
of the proposed decision-making procedure are analyzed.
