Abstract:
The Decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) method is a powerful method for capturing the causal relationship between criteria and has been successfully applied to crisp situations. However, in many real life cases, the decision data of human judgments with preferences are often vague so that the traditional ways of using crisp values are inadequate. In this paper, the directed influential degrees between pair wise criteria are expressed in trapezoidal fuzzy numbers is used in DEMATEL method to study on youth violence. Violence is a problem which affects our day today life in a severe way.


Keywords Causal analysis, Fuzzy theory, Decision making trial and evaluation laboratory DEMATEL, trapezoidal fuzzy number, youth violence.
