MyCo, a telco, has introduced mobile data packages for students. As a policy, MyCo does not want to discriminate based on gender when presenting the offers. As a Decisioning Consultant, how do you configure the ethical bias policy to allow no bias?
AnswerD
ExplanationTo configure an ethical bias policy that allows no bias based on gender, use the 0.9-1.11 Rate Ratio:
Understanding Rate Ratios:
Step 1: Rate ratios are used to detect and measure bias in decision-making processes.
Step 2: A rate ratio of 1 indicates perfect parity, meaning there is no bias between groups.
Configuring Bias Detection:
Step 1: In Pega Customer Decision Hub, you can configure bias detection by setting an acceptable rate ratio range.
Step 2: To ensure no bias based on gender, set the rate ratio to a narrow range close to 1, such as 0.9-1.11. This range ensures that the decisioning process treats different genders fairly, with minimal deviation.
Implementation:
Step 1: Navigate to the Bias Detection settings within the Decision Strategy framework.
Step 2: Set the rate ratio to 0.9-1.11 for gender to monitor and enforce non-discriminatory practices in presenting offers.
Example:
MyCo can use this configuration to ensure that their mobile data package offers for students do not exhibit gender bias, providing equal opportunities for both male and female students.
