In this paper we try to construct a two-attribute group disutility function for two conflicting decision makers, taking into account the property of utility independencev and/or convex dependence between them. Two variables in the group utility function are disutility levels of two conflicting decision makers. The disutility level of each decision maker is modeled using multiple attributes, that is disutility function of each decision maker is formulated as a multi-attribute disutility function. By using a group disutility function for two conflicting agents, we can model the mutual concessions of the two conflicting agents taking into account ethical preference of each decision maker, and hence we can expect fairer multiple agents decision making for realizing better social welfare.
