contents This paper addresses decision-aiding problems that involve multiple objectives and uncertain states of the world. Inspired by the capability approach, we focus on cases where a policy maker chooses an act that, combined with a state of the world, leads to a set of choices for citizens. While no preferential information is available to construct importance parameters for the criteria, we can obtain likelihoods for the different states. To effectively support decision-aiding in this context, we propose two procedures that merge the potential set of choices for each state of the world taking into account their respective likelihoods. Our procedures satisfy several fundamental and desirable properties that characterize the outcomes.
