A Novel Three‐Way Decision‐Based Approach for Environmental, Social, and Governance Performance Evaluation of Power Industry Under Pythagorean Fuzzy Multi‐Attribute Decision‐Making Environment

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
A novel method for evaluating the ESG performance level of power companies is proposed. The PFS‐FWZIC method is employed to calculate the indicator weights, avoiding the inconsistency issues associated with traditional methods. An ESG performance evaluation index system tailored for the power industry is constructed.

Repurposing Agricultural Budgets With Multiple Objectives and Fiscal Constraints: A Multicriteria Decision‐Making Policy Tool Applied to Sub‐Saharan African Countries

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Repurposing agricultural public resources toward higher‐return incentives and investments can help transform agri‐food systems. This is important for low‐income countries, especially in sub‐Saharan Africa, where limited budgets restrict options for boosting agricultural spending.

Bridging the implementation gap in MCABC inventory management: from a taxonomy to practical archetypes

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite increasing demands for resilient and sustainable supply chains, inventory management often relies on outdated single‐criterion analyses. While multi‐criteria ABC (MCABC) analyses provide a theoretically mature assessment of resilience‐sustainability‐benefit trade‐offs in inventory, their adoption remains limited due to fragmented ...

Assessing inconsistencies in the FITradeoff method: a comparison of two preference modeling paradigms

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Many decision‐making processes are susceptible to errors and inconsistencies introduced by decision‐makers (DMs). The development of decision support systems (DSS) has brought about a way to guide DMs through complex decision scenarios. However, due to the complexity of the process, inconsistencies may still arise.

Zagros Restoration: Smart Choices for Oak Forests

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10284-10307, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Widespread forest degradation across the northern Zagros region of Iran driven by both human activity and natural processes has created an urgent need for targeted afforestation and forest enrichment strategies. Hence, the aim of this study was identifying the most suitable native tree and shrub species for restoring degraded forest areas in ...

SMAA‐Based FITradeoff: An Efficient Framework for Pairwise Elicitation in Multicriteria Decision Analysis

Journal of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, Volume 33, Issue 2, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The Flexible and Interactive Tradeoff Elicitation (FITradeoff) method is a Multi‐Attribute Decision‐Making (MADM) approach designed to capture the preferences of a Decision Maker (DM) while minimising cognitive effort. To reduce the frequency of interactions and optimise the preference elicitation process, this paper introduces an innovative ...

Multiobjective Optimisation for Others: How Anchoring Effects Change Based on Who Guides the Interaction

Journal of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, Volume 33, Issue 2, August 2026.
ABSTRACT It is common in many real‐world scenarios for decisions to be made on behalf of others. However, Multicriteria Decision Aiding methods often implicitly assume that the person whose preferences operate the methods, known as the decision‐maker, is the source of those preferences.

Selection of Wheat Germ Drying Methods Using Multi‐Criteria Decision‐Making Techniques

Journal of Food Process Engineering, Volume 49, Issue 8, August 2026.
The parameters for the analysis of dried wheat germ were weighted using the MEREC method, with the most critical criterion being antioxidant capacity. The COBRA method was employed to evaluate a total of 15 alternatives. The most effective drying method for wheat germ was determined to be the combination of vacuum pre‐drying and microwave finish‐drying
