Multiple-Value Scoring (Shared Evaluation)

A multiple-value scoring system is a very simple concept: All participants in an interaction make independent evaluations of how they feel about it. This permits interactions to be non zero-sum. In the example where a good is transferred between two parties, both donor and recipient independently state the value it has to them:

The wider the gap, the larger the value of the transaction. Note that, unlike the single-value case, there is no systemic conflict in this interaction, since both participants want the same thing: a wide gap (meaning a large amount of increased value). This width of the price gap is the amount of value created by the transaction.

Although unfamiliar, it is more effective than single-value scoring, This is because it does not require agreement on a single price, something that is particularly troublesome where a large power imbalance exists between trading parties. By giving all participants equal opportunity to express their feelings, multiple-value scoring is much less prone to exploitation than traditional methods.
