Following Vartiainen (2007) we consider bargaining problems in which no exogenous disagreement outcome is given. A bargaining solution assigns a pair of outcomes to such a problem, namely a compromise outcome and a disagreement outcome: the disagreement outcome may serve as a reference point for the compromise outcome, but other interpretations are given as well. For this framework we propose a...

Among the most important and robust violations of rationality are the attraction and the compromise effects. The compromise effect refers to the tendency of individuals to choose an intermediate option in a choice set, while the attraction effect refers to the tendency to choose an option that dominates some other options in the choice set. This paper argues that both effects may result from an...

Students often do not understand the difference between collaboration and compromise. Collaboration, also known as problem solving, an integrative solution, or a win-win solution is, ‘‘a strategy that involves seeking a mutually satisfactory alternative’’ (Pruitt & Kim, 2004, p. 297). Compromise, in contrast, is ‘‘an obvious alternative that stands partway between the disputants’ preferred posi...

this paper processes a combined method, based on vikor and data envelopment analysis (dea) to select the units with most efficiency. we utilize the vikor as compromise solution method. this research is a two-stage model designed to fully rank the alternatives, where each alternative has multiple inputs and outputs. the problem involves belief parameters in the solution procedure. first, the alt...

the sensitivity analysis for multi-attribute decision making (madm) problems is important for two reasons: first, the decision matrix as the source of the results of a decision problem is inaccurate because it sorts the alternatives in each criterion inaccurately. second, the decision maker may change his opinions in a time period because of changes in the importance of the criteria and in the ...

The aim of this paper is to adopt a compromise ratio (CR) methodology for fuzzy multi-attribute single-expert decision making proble. In this paper, the rating of each alternative has been described by linguistic terms, which can be expressed as triangular fuzzy numbers. The compromise ratio method for fuzzy multiattribute single expert decision making has been considered here by taking the ran...
