“…Sociometric scores of crew cohesiveness were positively correlated with bombing accuracy scores. French (1951) on the other hand, was unable to show a significant relationship between his sociometric index of cohesiveness within military recruit companies and a variety of measures of performance, and Palmer and Myers (1968), observing radar crews of forty anti-aircraft batteries for a period of three months, found sociometric measures of group cohesiveness negatively related to productivity.…”

“…Consistent with these findings about safety are studies in military settings which show that flight accidents, frequency of sick bay attendance, and number of disciplinary offences are negatively related with the number of sociometric choices received when the criterion measures a positive aspect of behaviour (Zeleny, 1947;French, 1951).…”

“…This is the rational of considering five alternatives in this study 2. For example the Preference Matrix of Burdwan University Kabaddi Team is shown here 3.

Objectives: Nominating technique is commonly applied for studying social choices and rejections. Sociometry is one type of nominating technique. It also acts as a powerful tool for assessing dynamics and development in groups devoted to therapy or training. Method: To construct preference matrix a sociometric test was administered on the 12 players of a Kabaddi team. By tabulating the value of nomination in order of preference (1 to 5), as exercised by an individual member a Preference Matrix was formed; a row of the Preference Matrix represents the preference exercised by an individual member and a column represents the preference received by an individual member. This matrix was then transformed in to a Fuzzy Preference Matrix. Fuzzy Preference Index of an individual player was calculated by taking the total of the corresponding column of the matrix. Results: The popularity of each of the players was calculated. Conclusion: This is a nominating technique based on democratic method.
