EDAS approach for Psychological Education Effectiveness Evaluation of College Students based on Plithogenic Sets

Abstract

This study proposes a framework of using the plithogenic sets and Evaluation 
based on Distance from Average Solution (EDAS) method for psychological education 
effectiveness evaluation. The uncertainty, vague and inconsistent information are 
overcoming by using plithogenic numbers and computing the contradiction degrees of 
attribute values. This study uses the plithogenic multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) 
methodology to deal with various criteria. The criteria weights are computed and the 
rank of colleges. This study uses ten criteria and 6 colleges to be ranked and select the 
optimal one. The results show the Mental Health Improvement criterion has the highest 
importance and the Program Accessibility and Inclusivity criterion has the lowest 
importance. We conduct a sensitivity analysis to show the different ranks of alternatives 
under different weights. The results show the optimal alternative is stable under different 
weights.
