In multicriteria group decision-making (MCGDM) problems, there exist the situations that alternatives need to be assigned to several predefined ordered categories rather than be ranked from the most preferred to the least preferred, which is called multicriteria group sorting problems. To address multicriteria group sorting problems, it is necessary to implement a consensus reaching process to fully consider the opinion of each decision maker and reduce the conflict among them. To do so, this article proposes a consensus reaching model for multicriteria group sorting problems based on the threshold-based value-driven sorting method from the perspective of minimum adjustment. Specifically, we first define the consensus measure to calculate the agreement degree among decision makers by considering the ordinal information and cardinal information at the same time. On this basis, we construct a minimum …
