Abstract

It can be said that consensus building is group decision making. In group decision making support method, it has been focused on whether we can make a rational decision by using mathematical method. However, in daily life, people perform harmonious consensus naturally and make a decision that all the members satisfy. Therefore, the authors observed the process on consensus building with selection problem and compared a decision by mathematical method with it by discussion. Then, we proposed method that input a personal evaluation reason to choices in online and discuss GDSS (Group Decision Support System).
