Abstract: In this paper, Multiple Attribute Group Decision Making (MAGDM) problems in which the data is of the form of Interval Valued Intuitionistic Trapezoidal Fuzzy Numbers (IVITzFNs) is presented. Some operational laws of IVITzFNs are introduced. Then some new aggregation operators including interval valued Intuitionistic Trapezoidal Fuzzy Weighted Averaging (IVITzFWA) operator, interval valued Intuitionistic Trapezoidal Fuzzy Ordered Weighted Averaging (IVITzFOWA) operator and Interval Intuitionistic Trapezoidal Fuzzy Hybrid Averaging (IVITzFHA) operator, are proposed and some desirable properties of these operators are studied, such as Commutativity, Idempotency and Monotonicity. A new distance function and correlation coefficient are proposed for IVITzFNs which will be utilized for ranking the alternatives in MAGDM problems. Finally, numerical illustrations are given to verify the developed approach and to demonstrate its practicality and effectiveness.
