Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present a model that supports debate about nuclear safety measurement within the operator’ organization. This model concentrates on cognitive aspects specific to debate. For that purpose, it describes the construction of a multiattribute function that aims to give experts’ judgments about six safety criteria. These criteria cover the safety performances of power plant design modifications. An extension of this model based on Choquet’s integral is then given in order to improve the descriptive performance of the multiple criteria model. Lastly, we investigate its implementation in the context of group decision.
