Calculating the Contributor Archetype (a)

$\mathring {a}$ is calculated as:

$\mathring {a} = \displaystyle \upsilon_{\tiny (j, \tt H \cdot)} = \displaystyle \sum_{p=1}^N (w_p \times p_n) \times \frac 1 N$

where:

• $w_{p}$ is the weight assigned to a parameter p.

• $p_{n}$ represents each one of the parameters.

• N is the number of parameters p.

and can be developed and implemented as:

$\mathring {a} = \displaystyle[(\alpha \times w_{\tiny \alpha}) + (\beta \times w_{\tiny \beta}) + (\gamma \times w_{\tiny \gamma}) \times \frac 1 3]$

where $\alpha$, $\beta$ and $\gamma$ are the different parameters representing these archetypes, and $w$ is their user-assigned individual weight.
