Governance in family firms can profoundly influence corporate behavior and performance. Recently, family firm governance (FFG) has attracted extensive attention as increasing empirical research has been published. However, few studies have attempted to map the global research on this growing...

This book gives a thorough and systematic introduction to the latest research results on hesitant fuzzy and its extensions decision making theory. It includes five chapters: Hesitant Fuzzy Set and its Extensions, Distance Measures for Hesitant Fuzzy Sets and Their Extensions, Similarity Measures...

This book mainly introduces a series of theory and approaches of group decision-making based on several types of uncertain linguistic expressions and addresses their applications. The book pursues three major objectives: (1) to introduce some techniques to model several types of natural...

To determine the weight vector and to aggregate the individual opinions are necessary steps in the classical methods for multi-criteria group decision-making problems in which the weight vectors of the decision makers and the criteria are incompletely known. In this paper, we propose a simple...

As we may have a set of possible values when comparing alternatives (or criteria), the hesitant fuzzy preference relation becomes a suitable and powerful technique to deal with this case. This paper mainly focuses on the multiplicative consistency of the hesitant fuzzy preference relation. First...

Consistency plays an important part in decision making with interval reciprocal relation also called interval fuzzy preference relation. In this paper, we give the definition of perfect multiplicative consistent interval reciprocal relation and discuss its properties. A method is proposed to...
