How to interpret the results?
Interpreting the results means understanding what the graphs are telling you. In the first graph that shows the total score, a higher score means the alternative is better according to the criteria that was set by the creator.
In the second graph, you can see how each alternative compares to others for each factor. Look for patterns – points further right mean that alternative is better for that factor.
As both the alternatives, factors and evaluations are highly subjective, it's impossible to guess the intention of the person who created this decision model.
