Abstract
We introduce a number of properties associated with the aggregation of scores. Notable among these is the property of self-identity. The pro perty of commutativity is discussed and a number of situations in whic h this is an inappropriate condition to assume are presented. Motivate d by these examples we consider a linear class of noncommutative aggre gation operators. We show how the requirement of self-identity imposes a useful restriction on the weights associated with this aggregation. A number of special families of this class are investigated.
