Using League Table Rankings in Public Policy Formation: Statistical Issues
This article reviews the statisticalmodels that underpin institutional comparisons on the basis of outcome measures for their students. These multilevel models are developed to levels of complexity that match the problems posed. The strengths and limitations of inferences from these models are explored with examples taken from education. 385 A nn ua l R ev ie w o f St at is tic s an d It s A pp...
متن کاملWhy pairwise comparison methods may fail in MCDM rankings
This article is based on previous author’s articles on a correct way for ranking alternatives in Multi-criteria Decision-Making (MCDM). A straightforward but robust Weighed-Sum Procedure (WSP) is presented. It consists in combining additively ranks or scores evaluated against a dimensionless scale, common to all criteria. MCDM methodologies based on pair-wise comparison methods are on the contr...
متن کاملA comparison of hierarchical cluster analysis and league table rankings as methods for analysis and presentation of district health system performance data in Uganda†
In 2003, the Uganda Ministry of Health introduced the district league table for district health system performance assessment. The league table presents district performance against a number of input, process and output indicators and a composite index to rank districts. This study explores the use of hierarchical cluster analysis for analysing and presenting district health systems performance...
متن کاملPairwise Diffusion of Preference Rankings in Social Networks
We introduce a model of preference diffusion in which agents in a social network update their preferences based on those of their influencers in the network, and we study the dynamics of this model. Preferences are modelled as ordinal rankings over a finite set of alternatives. At each time step, some of the agents update the relative ordering of two alternatives adjacent in their current ranki...
متن کاملPreference Learning and Ranking by Pairwise Comparison
This chapter provides an overview of recent work on preference learning and ranking via pairwise classification. The learning by pairwise comparison (LPC) paradigm is the natural machine learning counterpart to the relational approach to preference modeling and decision making. From a machine learning point of view, LPC is especially appealing as it decomposes a possibly complex prediction prob...
