Abstract
In this contribution we study health status of Italian aging population using
an evaluation method based on the theory of partially ordered set. The method
allows to create synthetic measures out of a set of ordinal indicators without the need
for aggregation. After preliminary definitions, we calculate two indices to evaluate
physical and mental health, and by means of regression trees we analyse the role
that simple indicators play in discriminating health profiles.
