Abstract: We use the natural properties of intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs for short) to represent the pros, cons, and lack of knowledge concerning different options/alternatives, aiding in decision making, particularly in group decision making. We present a novel approach. We do not compare options/alternatives in pairs, we do not use distances. The approach is transparent and easily understandable for decision makers. The novel method points out the best option by ranking them.
