Abstract: A model for decision making is proposed which is based on an elimination process utilizing sequentially acquired information. The procedure combines aspects of the belief‐plausibility approach developed by Shafer and the generalized information system proposed by Yovits, et al. Although based on formalized rules and mathematical structures, the approach taken is basically the method used by many human decision makers when confronted with a major decision. An extensive example illustrates the technique. © 1990 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
