Journal Title: Acta Scientiarum Polonorum. Oeconomia - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
The author of the article sets out to perform two tasks. The first is an attempt to present the construction techniques of a ranking of items (in this case – voivodships) in terms of the level of a complex phenomenon, and then to present a method of division of items into groups with similar values of the synthetic variable. The second goal is to present the condition of pro-environmental activities in Poland in 2015 in the regional system. In order to implement this objective, diagnostic variables have been selected, describing the condition of activities for environmental protection. Based on the following criteria: substantive and sufficient variability, 11 diagnostic features have been selected. These variables constitute the basis for multiple criteria evaluation of a complex phenomenon (pro-environmental activities). Based on the described procedures, a ranking of voivodeships has been created on the basis of the status of pro-environmental activities in Poland. The set of items (voivodships) has been divided into 3 groups: group I – voivodships with a high level of pro-environmental activities, group II – voivodships with an average level, and group III with a relatively low level. The quantitative proportions of voivodships in particular groups are as follows, respectively: 4 : 6 : 6.
