“…Only one-fifth of the analysed documents presented any kind of sensitivity analysis. This result is similar to those found by (Mu, Cooper, and Peasley 2020) in a recent review about ANP practices. Sensitivity analysis should be addressed after final priorities are obtained, but as it is an uncommon practice, some models' developers could consider that is unnecessary to report it.…”

“…Regarding technical aspects, we would like to highlight some findings related to poor and incomplete ANP reporting findings. Many of the identified shortcomings have also been identified by (Mu et al 2020). Two kinds of missing information were identified during the screening and analysis stages.…”

“…One of the perceived weaknesses of the studies in the area is related to the presentation of the approach used in the choice of participants (Mu et al 2020). The proposed methodology allows for a clear approach to their selection and also allows for a better study of the preferences among different groups of actors related to the same problem.…”

“…The AHP is a multi-criteria decision support technique developed in the 1970s by the Iraqi-born American mathematician Prof. Thomas L. Saaty [11]. In the scientific community, AHP is one of the most promising methods in the decision-making landscape for several reasons [12,13]. Through AHP it is possible to breakdown complex decision problems using hierarchical decomposition.…”

An interdisciplinary framework to define strategies for digitalization and sustainability: Proposal of a ‘digicircular’ model

The criteria of economic, social, and environmental sustainability defined by the United Nations and consolidated in Agenda 2030 must become a 'lighthouse' to promote the use of digital technologies as an essential tool for sustainable development. Thus, the role of decision makers must therefore be oriented to promote technological development towards a sustainable world. However, any technological innovation, even the best, can give negative effects if not applied with a perspective on sustainability. This is increasingly evident with the growth of globalization. Thus, the aim of the present research is to identify challenges to achieve Circular Economy and Bioeconomy in a digital era and to define a blueprint for a 'digicircular' transformation. An integrated and interdisciplinary framework is proposed to prioritize digital capabilities which are hindering the digicircular economy implementation. An interdisciplinary and multicriteria tool to enable a digicircular model is developed. Bloomberg's environmental and Corporate Knights Global Sustainability Score which use private and public information from companies served for define the research model.

Implications of the stability analysis of preferences for personalised colorectal cancer screening

Patients are increasingly interested in becoming involved in the medical decisionmaking process. As a result, healthcare providers and researchers are concerned with finding new ways to integrate patients' preferences, by understanding their commitment to and the stability of those preferences. Preventive medicine, such as colorectal cancer screening, presents an opportunity for personalising the decision-making trajectory based on patients' preferences. In this paper, we propose a framework for a joint decision-making process, capable of integrating patients' changing preferences, as described by a stability analysis of those preferences and design scenarios for implementing the process in clinical practice. In this study, a secondary data analysis, we present scenarios that demonstrate how the stability analysis of an Analytic Network Process (ANP) model supports personalising the process of agreeing on an appropriate colorectal cancer screening option. We illustrate the framework using two patients whose preferences have different stabilities and for whom the healthcare provider has different rankings for the recommended alternatives. The results show the differences in additional medical information the healthcare provider might need to provide as part of the joint decision-making process in order to reach an agreement between the patient and the provider. A stability analysis of the patient's preferences provides the healthcare provider with a mapping of the preferred options. It also shows how the patient's most preferred alternative might change as the patient obtains additional relevant medical information. Knowing how the patient's priorities might change supports a personalisation of the medical decision-making process. We conclude that the healthcare provider can utilise the stability analysis of a patient's preferences to identify possible dialogue paths that would enable reaching a consensus about an appropriate screening option.
