This paper presents a backward analysis on the interpretation, modelling and impact of the
concept of fuzzy random variable. After some preliminaries, the situations modelled by …

The use of the fuzzy scale of measurement to describe an important number of observations
from real-life attributes or variables is first explored. In contrast to other well-known scales …

The fuzzy rating method has been introduced in psychometric studies as a tool, which allows
the capture of and accurate reflection of the diversity, subjectivity, and imprecision inherent …

Basic ideas and formal concepts from fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic have been used
successfully in various branches of science and engineering. This paper elaborates on the …

In evaluating aspects like quality perception, satisfaction or attitude which are intrinsically
imprecise, the fuzzy rating scale has been introduced as a psychometric tool that allows …

A linear regression model with imprecise response and p real explanatory variables is
analyzed. The imprecision of the response variable is functionally described by means of …

Real-life data associated with experimental outcomes are not always real-valued. In
particular, opinions, perceptions, ratings, etc., are often assumed to be vague in nature …

The fuzzy rating scale was introduced as a tool to measure intrinsically ill-
defined/imprecisely-valued attributes in a free way. Thus, users do not have to choose a …

The expected value of a fuzzy random variable plays an important role as central summary
measure, and for this reason, in the last years valuable statistical inferences about the …
