The students were required to select the between (5) alternative answers for each issue. The objectives of the test and the issues used are to measure the capabilities of the students in information awareness. The results were verified for their stability and consistency using Cronbach’s Alpha formula which produced a good coefficient score of 0.71. The second part of the methodology was to measure the student’s analytical thinking skill using (20) issues related to analytical thinking skill. The first (15) issues were measured in an objective multiple choice type of test whilst the test of the other (5) issues relied on descriptive answers. The results of the test were verified for their stability and consistency including psychometric characteristics using Cronbach’s Alpha formula which produced a good coefficient score of 0.78. The results of the test indicated that the measure of the information awareness of this sample of students was (50. 16) and that the heir measure of analytical skill was (67. 62%)

... Show MoreAfter Zadeh introduced the concept of z-number scientists in various fields have shown keen interest in applying this concept in various applications. In applications of z-numbers, to compare two z-numbers, a ranking procedure is essential. While a few ranking functions have been already proposed in the literature there is a need to evolve some more good ranking functions. In this paper, a novel ranking function for z-numbers is proposed- "the Momentum Ranking Function"(MRF). Also, game theoretic problems where the payoff matrix elements are z-numbers are considered and the application of the momentum ranking function in such problems is demonstrated.
