Henry Garrett Ranking Techniques

This technique was used to evaluate the problems faced by the policy

holders of Health Insurance policy. In this method, the policy holders were asked

to rank the given problem according to the magnitude of the problem. The orders

of merit given by the respondents were converted into ranks by using the following

formula.

100 ( Rij −0 .5 )

Percentage Position = Nj

Where,

Rij = Rank given for ith item jth individual

Nj = Number of items ranked by jth individual

The percentage position of each rank thus obtained was converted into

scores by referring to the table given by Henry Garrett. Then for each factor the

scores of individual respondents were added together and divided by the total

number of respondents for whom the scores were added. These mean scores for all

the factors were arranged in the order of their ranks and inferences were drawn.
