Over the past decade, several influential papers examining the relationship between scientific knowledge and attitudes toward science have been published.

Summated scales were built thro...

A visual information feedback mechanism for group decision making (GDM) problems with triangular fuzzy complementary preference relations (TFCPRs) is investigated. The concepts of similarity degree (SD) between two experts as well as the proximity degree (PD) between an expert and the rest of experts in the group are developed for TFCPRs. The consensus level (CL) is defined by combining SD and ...
