Pairwise Sorted Approval is the simplest of a class of [[Pairwise Sorted Methods]].

A voter ranks candidates, and specifies approval, either by using an [[Approval Cutoff]] or by ranking above and below a fixed approval cutoff rank.

To determine the winner,
# sorted candidates in descending order of approval.
# For each candidate, move it higher in the list as long as it pairwise beats the next-higher candidate, and only after all candidates above it have moved upward as far as they can.

This procedure can be used to produce a social ordering. It finds the same winner as [[Definite Majority Choice]].
