Abstract
In this paper we consider some problems related to attribute dependencies in consensus determining. These problems concern the dependencies of attributes representing the content of conflicts, which cause that one may not treat the attributes independently in consensus determining. We show how to cope with situations when consensus values calculated for the attributes do not fulfill the dependency function: an error estimation method and an algorithm for calculating a consensus for dependent attribute are presented.
