Fundamental Measurement: The Need Fulfilment Quality of Life (N-QOL) Measure [PDF]
INNOVATIONS in Pharmacy, 2021 The quality adjusted life year (QALY) has serious problems related to its failure to adhere to measurement theory. If a QALY is to be meaningful, the utility score that translates time spent to an equivalent time spent in so-called perfect health must ...

AN EXPERIMENT IN MULTIATTRIBUTE UTILITY THEORY [PDF]
Australian Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1985 A version of multiattribute utility theory is evaluated as an aid to social decision making using an Australian case study. A multiattribute utility function is assessed over the descriptive, discrete decision alternatives of the decision problem rather than over the risky consequences of the attributes as in the standard approach.

Measuring Balance Abilities of Transtibial Amputees Using Multiattribute Utility Theory. [PDF]
Biomed Res Int, 2021 Background. Berg Balance Scale (BBS) can be considered the standard for assessment of functional balance but has a noted ceiling effect in active transtibial amputees (TTAs). Development of ceiling‐free measures based on quantitative measurement techniques that is suitable for patients in any experience levels, yet sensitive enough to capture ...

Anchor Levels as a New Tool for the Theory and Measurement of Multiattribute Utility [PDF]
Decision Analysis, 2004 This paper introduces anchor levels as a new tool for multiattribute utility theory. Anchor levels are attribute levels whose values are not affected by other attributes. They allow for new interpretations and generalizations of known representations and utility measurement techniques. Generalizations of earlier techniques can be obtained because cases

An application of multiattribute utility theory to the choice of a software for e-procurement.
Revista Tecnologia, 2009 This article shows how Multi-Attribute Utility Theory (MAUT) can be applied to evaluation and choice of an e-procurement software. The Swing Weighting technique was used for weights assignment in the construction of a multiattribute utility function ...

MULTIATTRIBUTE UTILITY THEORY, INTERTEMPORAL UTILITY, AND CORRELATION AVERSION [PDF]
International Economic Review, 2018 AbstractConvenient assumptions about qualitative properties of the intertemporal utility function have generated counterintuitive implications for the relationship between atemporal risk aversion and the intertemporal elasticity of substitution. If the intertemporal utility function is additively separable, then the latter two concepts are the inverse ...
