A tendency in the theory of aggregation functions is the generalization of the monotonicity condition. In this work, we examine the latest developments in terms of different generalizations. In particular, we discuss strengthened ordered directional monotonicity, its relation to other types of monotonicity, such as directional and ordered directional monotonicity and the main properties of the class of functions that are strengthened ordered directionally monotone. We also study some construction methods for such functions and provide a characterization of usual monotonicity in terms of these notions of monotonicity.

In this work we propose a new generalization of the notion of monotonicity, the so-called ordered directionally monotonicity. With this new notion, the direction of increasingness or decreasingness at a given point depends on that specific point, so that it is not the same for every value on the domain of the considered function.
