ci_bod_dir: Directional Benefit of the Doubt (D-BoD) model

Description

Directional Benefit of the Doubt (D-BoD) model enhance non-compensatory property by introducing directional penalties in a standard BoD model in order to consider the preference structure among simple indicators.

Usage

ci_bod_dir(x, indic_col, dir)

Arguments

x

A data.frame containing score of the simple indicators.

indic_col

Simple indicators column number.

dir

Main direction. For example you can set the average rates of substitution.

Value

An object of class "CI". This is a list containing the following elements:

ci_bod_dir_est

Composite indicator estimated values.

ci_method

Method used; for this function ci_method="bod_dir".
