Sensitivity

Revisiting Professor example

Click on Results….. sensitivity graph and choose any measure (say Education)

Click Okay You will see the above sensitivity graph for education. How was the line at 29% drawn? To get this you should see the weights calculation Click Review…..weights…..scaling coefficients Education comes under personal attributes which as 0.333 weight

So the overall education weight is 0.875*0.333= 0.29 Currently at the intersection of vertical line and the 3 colored lines it is clear that candidate 2 is preferred over candidate 1.

From the sensitivity graph it is also clear that if the weight on education is increased beyond say 46 % then candidate 1 will be preferred over 2.

To verify this Click on results …..dynamic sensitivity

As seen below candidate 2 is preferred with 0.602

Bring the cursor to the right end of education bar, you will get a palm cursor. Now drag the bar to your right and make it 46%

You will notice that Candidate 1 is preferred. With 0.616 as shown below.

This explains sensitivity of weights. You may try this for other measures.
