چکیده انگلیسی
The problem-solving decision-making process often requires involvement of a group of individuals who have differing interests and conflicting multiple evaluation criteria. Therefore, the greatest concern in multiobjective group decision-making problems is how to arrive at a best decision that is agreeable to all the members of the group. Many previous studies focused on handling this concern based on decision rules, such as the consensus or ranking selection approaches. Although many contributions to the literature were made by past studies on this issue, disagreement remains on finding an effective way to address the subjectivity issue in group decision-making. This paper introduces a new approach called the preference clustering-based mediating group decision-making (PCM-GDM) method for minimizing the subjectivity issue. The PCM-GDM method basically employs two concepts: (1) clustering the preferences of the group members in a decision and (2) utilizing a mediating agent as a final decision-making tool. The new approach was applied to a case study of sample concrete bridge decks in the state of Indiana. The results of this study confirm that the proposed approach can significantly improve the multicriteria group decision-making results by providing a way to exclude biased judgments by decision-makers that can interfere with the development of one best alternative. The proposed approach advanced the reliability of the conventional decision-making knowledge, which is dependent on a consensus or the ranking of approaches by human experts to reach one solution.
