Priorities Evaluation |
The following procedure can be used to evaluate priorities. |
- For each group, rate each goal on a scale of 1-10 to get the group priority.
|
Example: Group Priorities
|
Goal: |
Happiness |
Population |
Longevity |
Group: |
|
|

Self |
|

- For each goal, rate each group on a scale of 1-10 to get the goal priority.
|

- For each cell [group, goal], multiply the group priority by the goal priority to get the overall priority.
|
Example: Overall Priority
|
Goal: |
Happiness |
Population |
Longevity |
Group: |
|
|
|
|
Self |
|
5 * 5 = 25 |
1 * 1 = 1 |
5 * 5 = 25 |
Family |
|
10 * 7 = 70 |
5 * 7 = 35 |
10 * 7 = 70 |
Others |
|
7 * 5 = 35 |
5 * 10 = 50 |
10 * 10 = 100 |
Other Species |
2 * 3 = 6 |
10 * 5 = 50 |
10 * 5 = 50 |
|
- Rank each overall priority from largest to smallest, beginning with 1.
|

Goal: |

To rank groups, do the following with the overall priorities:
- For each group (row), add the priorities together.
- Rank the results from largest to smallest number.
|
Example: Group Ranks

|

Rank |
Self |
|
25 + 1 + 25 = 51 |
4 |
Family |
|
70 + 35 + 70 = 175 |
2 |
Others |
|
35 + 50 + 100 = 185 |
1 |
Other Species |
6 + 50 + 50 = 106 |
3 |
|
To rank groups, do the following with the overall priorities:
- For each goal (column), add the priorities together.
- Rank the results from largest to smallest number.
|
Example: Goal Ranks
|
Happiness |
Population |
Longevity |
Priority Sum |
25 + 70 + 35 + 6 = 136 |
1 + 35 + 50 + 50 = 136 |
25 + 70 + 100 + 50 = 250 |
