Techniques for the Assessment of Worth

Abstract

Subjective worth forms the basis for the selection of future alternatives and the evaluation of past actions. During the past few years several formal methods of worth assessment have been developed. These methods provide an explicit basis for incorporating military judgment into the assessment process in a manner designed to produce consistent and valid assessment. Seven general methods for worth assessment are reviewed. Step-by- step procedures, a specific example, and variations of each method are provided.
