DOI: 10.1002/hec.3869
Abstract: Discrete choice experiments (DCEs) are frequently used in health economics to measure preferences for nonmarket goods. Best-worst discrete choice experiment (BWDCE) has been proposed as a variant of the traditional "pick the best" approach. BWDCE,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/int.22663
Abstract: The best‐worst method (BWM) is a multi‐criteria decision‐making (MCDM) approach for solving several types of real‐life decision‐making problems. The basic BWM determines the priority order by pairwise comparisons of the best and worst criteria. The… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10878-017-0203-4
Abstract: We consider two variants of the secretary problem, the Best-or-Worst and the Postdoc problems, which are closely related. First, we prove that both variants, in their standard form with binary payoff 1 or 0, share… read more here.
