Comparisons are made between the two paradigms by forming a ratio of fuzzy ranking value to probabilistic ranking value for a set of tested economic decision conditions (vague cash flows and interest rates). A multivariable analysis of the comparison ratios indicates the dominance or spread required in the expected present worths of competing alternatives to guarantee consistent decision ranking among the paradigms. Results of the research suggest that probabilistic methods will not rank vague economic investment information the same as fuzzy set methods. As a result, decision makers who use probabilistic methods to model vagueness in human thought (the condition for which fuzzy theory was developed) may obtain rankings inconsistent with those obtained via the fuzzy models. In such cases, if decisions are based on project rankings, then different choices or recommendations are likely.}, number={1}, journal={The Engineering Economist}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Sorenson, Gregory E. and Lavelle, Jerome P.}, year={2008}, month={Mar}, pages={42–67} } @inbook{spurlin_rajala_lavelle_2008, title={Assessing student learning: ensuring undergraduate students are learning what we want them to learn}, ISBN={9781579222123}, booktitle={Designing better engineering education through assessment: A practical resource for faculty and department chairs on using assessment and ABET criteria to improve student learning}, publisher={Sterling, Va: Stylus Publishing.}, author={Spurlin, J. and Rajala, S. and Lavelle, J.}, year={2008} } @book{designing better engineering education through assessment: a practical resource for faculty and department chairs on using assessment and abet criteria to improve student learning_2008, ISBN={1579222129}, publisher={Sterling, VA: Stylus Pub.}, year={2008} } @book{donald g. newnan_lavelle_2004, title={Engineering economic analysis}, publisher={New York: Oxford University Press}, author={Donald G.
