Analysis of Sustainable Development Indicators through Neutrosophic Correlation Coefficients

Abstract:

This study reviews the main initiatives for the development and implementation of environmental sustainability and sustainable development indicators. The indicators, built specifically for the corresponding users, constitute a system of signals that allow each country to evaluate its progress toward sustainable development. The purpose of this research is to identify, through neutrosophic logic, the specific indicators of sustainable development with the highest incidence in Ecuador. For this, a documentary analysis is carried out to provide the primary information on which to carry out the analysis and the knowledge of experts in the area. Correlation coefficients applied to single-value neutrosophic numbers are used to obtain a ranking of sustainable development indicators. Finally, policies and projects can be adopted to strengthen the national infrastructure in favor of sustainability. At the same time, it is shown that the application of neutrosophic techniques is a pillar to be exploited, through which to generate better discussed and studied reasoning.
