Abstract

This work combines the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) with Assessment of Aggregate Rates (ARAS) approaches to develop a decision support system for item categorization, incorporating the 'Spark Joy' notion popularized by Marie Kondo. The objective of this technique is to create an atmosphere marked by cleanliness and an all-encompassing feeling of satisfaction.The research utilizes the AHP methodology to allocate weights to both criteria and alternatives, as well as to conduct pairwise comparisons of criteria. The ARAS approach is employed to assess the relative performance of various options by utilizing predetermined criteria. The decision-making process can be more efficiently carried out when these two strategies are combined.The findings of this combined method suggest that the prescribed order of objects for sale or donation comprises a 2-door wardrobe, a bookcase, a dining table and chairs, and a food cabinet. The employed methodologies in this study exhibit strong validity and dependability in informing the decision-making process grounded in the 'Spark Joy' idea.This study contributes to supporting the application of AHP and ARAS methods in item sorting based on the 'Spark Joy' concept. The combination of these methods can assist users in selecting items that truly bring happiness while minimizing unnecessary belongings, with the goal of creating a cleaner and happier environment.
