Abstract
In this chapter, the results of Chapter III are extended to the following more general type of partially ranked data: each judge is given a list of n items. He partitions these n items into r groups: the first group contains his n1 favorite items, the second group con tains his n2 next most preferred items, and so on; the final group contains his nr least favorite items. The judge does not state any preferences among members of the same group. Here n1,…, nr are strictly positive integers, satisfying n; the partial ranking is said to be “of type n1,…nr.”
