RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 A consensus reaching process in the context of non-uniform ordered qualitative scales A1 García Lapresta, José Luis A1 Pérez Román, David K1 Group decision-making AB In this paper, we consider that a group of agents judge a set of alternatives bymeans of an ordered qualitative scale. The scale is not assumed to be uniform,i.e., the psychological distance between adjacent linguistic terms is not necessarilyalways the same. In this setting, we propose how to measure the consensus ineach subset of at least two agents over each subset of alternatives. We introducea consensus reaching process where some agents may be invited to change theirassessments over some alternatives in order to increase the consensus. All thesteps are managed in a purely ordinal way through ordinal proximity measures.
