The invention relates to a competition score evaluation method based on the social selection theory and belongs to the competition evaluation and colony decision field. According to the method, firstly, competitor preference relations of referees are acquired, and a competitor pairing preference matrix is established on the basis of the competitor preference relations; secondly, according to the pairing preference matrix, a digraph is constructed, and strongest paths are calculated; and lastly, a strongest path matrix is generated, and the final competitor sequence is acquired through comparing the strongest paths of competitors. Through taking consideration of the competitor preference relations of the referees, the digraph is constructed, the strongest paths are further calculated, maneuverability in an ordering process is weakened essentially, and a new method for score evaluation on most subjective competitions is provided.
