Abstract: A method for forming an evaluation signal (YM) representing a measurement value comprises the steps of obtaining a plurality of measurement signals (X1, X2, X3, X4) from a plurality of sensors detecting measurement values within a time interval, preferably simultaneously; supplying each measurement signal (X1, X2, X3, X4) to a plurality of evaluation units; and forming an evaluation signal (YM1, YM2, YM3, YM4) in accordance with an evaluation algorithm with each evaluation unit. A circuit configuration for forming an evaluation signal (YM) in accordance with an evaluation algorithm from a plurality of measurement signals (X1, X2, X3, X4) comprises: a plurality of sensors detecting the measurement value within a time interval, preferably simultaneously, and generating the measurement signals, an evaluation unit, and, advantageously, a confirmation unit and a consolidation unit, the units forming a single aggregate unit.
