Abstract: The purpose of this research is to review the characteristics, contributions, and limitations of the existing corruption index measurement models by comparison and analysis. Based upon such review, I intend to provide a more logical and systematic alternative model utilizing AHP method. First, I suggest the corruption index calculation method as a procedural process. Second, I applied the AHP method and put weighted values to the items, elements, and index of measurement and, thereby, enable the prioritization of items, elements, and index of measurement. Third, I suggest a desirable model for measuring administrative corruption index for the future by overcoming the limitations of the existing models. Finally, I present five expected effects and utilities of the new model which can overcome the existing limitations.
