A fuzzy ServQual based method for reliable measurements of education quality in Italian higher education area

TL;DR: A method based on a recent extension of the ServQual model and that uses in combined manner the Fuzzy Set Theory and the Analytic Hierarchy Process method is proposed to effectively handle uncertainty in service performance analyses to show that professors' perception of service quality meaningfully influences the overall service performance level.

Fuzzy analytic hierarchy process: Fallacy of the popular methods

TL;DR: The validity of the Analytic Hierarchy/Network Process (AHP/ANP) in complex and uncertain environments is discussed and it is found that fuzzy ANP is a false proposition because there is no fuzzy priority in the super matrix which provides the basis for the ANP.

The Analytic Hierarchy Process

TL;DR: Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) as mentioned in this paper is a systematic procedure for representing the elements of any problem hierarchically, which organizes the basic rationality by breaking down a problem into its smaller constituent parts and then guides decision makers through a series of pairwise comparison judgments to express the relative strength or intensity of impact of the elements in the hierarchy.

A fuzzy extension of Saaty's priority theory

TL;DR: A fuzzy version of Saaty's pairwise comparison method (1980) extended by de Graan and Lootsma (1981), adapted in such a way, that decision-makers are asked to express their opinions in fuzzy numbers with triangular membership functions.
