RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Measuring consensus in a preference-approval context A1 Erdamar, Bora A1 García Lapresta, José Luis A1 Pérez Román, David A1 Sanver, Mert Remzi K1 Sistemas de votación K1 Álgebra AB We consider measuring the degree of homogeneity for preference-approval proles which include the approval information for the alternatives as well as the rankings of them. A distance-based approach is followed to measure the disagreement for any given two preference-approvals. Under the condition that a proper metric is used, we propose a measure of consensus which is robust to some extensions of the ordinal framework. This paper also shows that there exists a limit for increasing the homogeneity level in a group of individuals by simply replicating their preference approvals.
