Abstract: Decision making involves various attributes along with several decision takers. Recently it has become more complex. This gives raise to uncertainty and associated with the information provided. So it may be appropriate to suggest that uncertainty demonstrates itself in numerous forms and of different types. Uncertainties may arise due to human behaviour, fluctuations of information, unknown facts. Fuzzy set theory is tool to deal with uncertainty in a better way. Both Fuzzy set theory and information theory are involved in dealing with various real-world problems such as segmentation of images, medical diagnosis, managerial decision making etc. Several methods and concepts dealing with imprecision and uncertainty have been proposed by many researchers. In the present communication, the authors have proposed a parametric generalization of entropy introduced by De Luca and Termini along with its basic properties. Further, a new measure of weighted coefficient of correlation is developed and applied to solve decision making problems involving uncertainty.
