Abstract
A new consensus model for the consensus reaching process, in a linguis tic framework, is presented in heterogeneous group decision making pro blems, called rational consensus model. It is guided by some linguisti c consensus and linguistic consistency measures. All the measures are calculated from a set of linguistic preference relations used to provi de experts' opinions. This consensus model allows more rational consen sus solutions to be obtained and thus, more human consistency to be in corporated in decision support systems. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
