Scoring, Weighting and Aggregation
The statistical tests showed that data for indicators are not normally distributed. Therefore, the indicator values above and below the median are linearly scored in two groups. The Delphi system was conducted with a group of experts to assign weighting scores to the indicators. Total score of 600 is distributed to each indicator as follows:
Number of Articles: % 24
