The Proposal for the Procedure Supporting Selection of a Linear Ordering Method

Abstract

In this paper there was analyzed the issue of the selection of linear ordering method based on synthetic variable. The research of the status of waste management in Polish voivodeships in 2012 showed that selection procedures for the construction of synthetic variable affects the ranking of the objects under investigation. In the paper authors proposed a method supporting decision to select linear ordering procedure based on between ranking linear comparison measure (Kukuła, 1989). The choice of ordering methods with the use of the proposed procedure, of course, depends largely on the output of the set of ordering procedures. The test results indicate that there is no universal method.
