Before you begin
Complete
the first two steps in “Comparing elements in a view.”
About this task
To analyze the consistency of elements:
Procedure
- In the toolbar, click Check Consistency.
The Check Consistency frame opens and displays the triple that contains the lowest consistency.
- Use Previous Triple and Next
Triple to navigate in the list of triples.
- To change the comparisons, select one of these options:
- If you want the Pairwise Comparisons frame to display only the
three elements that are in the triple, click Compare These
Three Elements. You might do this to locate the comparisons
that must be updated.
- To open the Pairwise Comparisons frame and change the value of
the comparison, click one of the icons between the elements. The frame
displays only the two elements.
- To open the Pairwise Comparisons frame and display all of the
completed comparisons for the current view and criterion, click Compare
All Elements.
- To continue analyzing the consistency, repeat steps 2 and
3.
Note: The consistency frame displays a subset of the
completed comparisons. To view all of the comparisons, click Compare
All Elements. A total consistency lower than 70% indicates
that there are some conflicting comparisons to locate and correct.
