Abstract: Decision-making is one of the significant and inevitable issues in the most real-world problems. Decision criteria interact in many of these problems, and traditional aggregation techniques, which are usually linear methods, cannot be exploited to consider these interactions and exert correlations between criteria. In such cases, nonadditive aggregation methods have attracted the attention of many researchers. This study presents a novel model based on the best-worst method (BWM) and the multi-criteria fuzzy Choquet integral technique to apply the interaction between the criteria. In the proposed model, we have reduced the effect of the inconsistency rate detected on the fuzzy measure (or Choquet capacity) by taking into account the positive or negative interaction between the criteria.
