A Note on Consistency in Utility Assessment*
基于冯·诺依曼-摩根斯坦效用函数的关键公理，提出一种确定该函数的方法，并利用互反矩阵理论协调不一致的判断，同时提供衡量判断集体偏离一致性的数值指标。
ABSTRACT A methodology for determining a von Neumann‐Morgenstern utility function is outlined based on the axioms crucial to such a function. Reconciliation of inconsistent judgments is facilitated using the theory of reciprocal matrices. Numerical measures of the collective divergence of a set of judgments from perfect consistency or coherency are provided.
