2 Theoretical Aspects of Multi-criteria Decision-Making …

Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM):
This is a field that deals with decision that hugely involves a better or an outstanding
choice from different replicates of ideas based on criteria or attributes that may not
be clear to the observer.
Decision Analysis:
Another important aspect of learning is the decision analysis; this in other terms can
be a systematic and qualitative visualized approach that tends to evaluate important
choices perceived by the decision maker. This can be used by groups and individuals
that tend to make decisions about investment, business decisions strategy and even
risk management.
Multi Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA):
MCDA involves solving decision problems systematically. It is considered to be
theoretical in its approach using diverse choices. Decision making is considered a
field that relates to other fields effectively. An instance, is having an intention of
purchasing a vehicle; most importantly the buyer decides on the vehicles efficiency,
what to consider when buying the vehicle. However, similar comparable characters
evolve whenever an individual decides to buy, eat or even travel.
There are two main important facts that grease our potentials in achieving our
goals as individuals. These include;
1. Decision models or theories can be used to assist other individuals, societies
or groups to understand the power of decisions and principles attached to any
decision taken.
2. Decision models are used to design blue print on any decision to take as a plan
for a successful work.
MCDA is regarded as one among many types of analysis that is considered to
possess advantageous character towards broad spectrum importance. Choice to do
anything is one of human character which extends to solving major problems faced
by human when making decisions in all facets of life; career or not. Many alternatives
can be evaluated when taking a decision; however, this can be difficult times which
may not be satisfactory. In other words, decision makers are engaged to logically
employ their knowledge into rationale analysis. This alternatively brings MCDA into
limelight used as an appropriate tool by experts to inform, analyze, clarify and justify
decisions to be certified with success. This process was used in 1979 applying the
Stanley Zionts publication (If not A Rom, Numeral, Then What?) which he tried to
persuade his readers to use the method. This method was subsequently adopted in
other journals of International Society of MCDM.
