The AHP not only clearly identifies the most important alternative but also the preference for each alternative by each decision maker. Therefore, using AHP to analyze the decision-making process may result in a precise clarification of preference for alternatives. Based on survey researches on social issues, the results offered some evidence that the application of the AHP was superior to traditional questionnaire methods in representing human perceptions.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;">http://dx.doi.org/10.13033/ijahp.v1i2.31<br></span></p> ER -
