✦ Synopsis
used to derive a partial preference ordering. For two recent methods see Salo and HaÈ maÈ laÈ inen (1992, 1995) and for an overview see Weber (1987). From empirical research we know that subjects are prone to biases. In addition, as pointed out by the authors, verbal expressions used in the AHP might have to be interpreted differently from one attribute to another. Research has to show whether incomplete preference information is more robust with regard to these problems and therefore could help to overcome at least some of the problems of the AHP.

In this paper we apply multiattribute value theory as a framework for examining the use of pairwise comparisons in the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). On one hand our analysis indicates that pairwise comparisons should be understood in terms of preference differences between pairs of alternatives.
