Neutrosophic Sets and Systems
Abstract
This study proposed a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methodology for evaluating the elderly care security services. These services consist various criteria, so the MCDM methodology is used. MABAC methodology is a MCDM method used to rank the alternatives. The MABAC methodology is integrated under the plithogenic sets to deal with vague and uncertainty data. The plithogenic sets are an extension of neutrosophic sets to deal with inconsistencies data. The criteria weights are computed in this study. Seven criteria and 13 alternatives are collected in this study. An application with opinions of three experts evaluate the criteria and alternatives. The results show the criterion Accessibility of Services has the highest weights and the criterion Technological Integration in Care Services has the lowest weights. The sensitivity analysis is performed to show the stability of rank of alternatives.
