Abstract:
We discuss the method of data analysis proposed in the article Collective expert examination of scientific journals: Procedure of expert judgments aggregation and rating construction by O. V. Fedorets published in the same issue. An alternative approach to the aggregation of expert point judgments with non-uniform number of estimates is proposed. This approach involves the weighted mean of the judgments including a neutral prior judgment.
Keywords:expert judgments; incomplete expert data; point score; prior judgment; rating of scientific journals.
