  • Descrição: ► New sorting method characterizing each category by several reference actions. ► More freedom to the decision maker for expressing her/his preferences. ► Decision aiding tool for dealing with sorting problems. This paper presents E lectre T ri- nC, a new sorting method which takes into account several reference actions for characterizing each category. This new method gives a particular freedom to the decision maker in the co-construction decision aiding process with the analyst to characterize the set of categories, while there is no constraint for introducing only one reference action as typical of each category like in E lectre T ri-C ( Almeida-Dias et al., 2010). As in such a sorting method, this new sorting method is composed of two joint rules. E lectre T ri- nC also fulfills a certain number of natural requirements. Additional results on the behavior of the new method are also provided in this paper, namely the ones with respect to the addition or removal of the reference actions used for characterizing a certain category. A numerical example illustrates the manner in which E lectre T ri- nC can be used by a decision maker. A comparison with some related sorting procedures is presented and it allows to conclude that the new method is appropriate to deal with sorting problems.
