Abstract
It is clear that fuzziness in real-world problems is generally related to human beings. But unfortunately, social scientists have been rather late to utilize fuzzy set theory in their complex problems. We know that the individual nature of the mind is fuzzy. But in fact, our social environment is also, in some extend, is fuzzy. Fuzzy sets provide us a mathematical way of modeling to represent vagueness in all kinds of social sciences. Generally, we have many parameters in this type of problem. From deterministic mathematical modeling to probabilistic, from probabilistic to fuzzy, we should be capable of data analysis and having more accurate conclusions. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
