Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyze under which conditions Absolute Order-of-Magnitude and Relative Order-of-Magnitude models may be concordant and to determine the constraints which guarantee concordance. A graphical interpretation of the constraints is provided, bridging the absolute qualitative labels of two quantities into their corresponding relative relation(s), and conversely. The relative order of magnitude relations are then characterized in the absolute order-of-magnitude world.
