In the real world, it is a big challenge for an individual emergency manager (EM) to make a proper and comprehensive decision for coping with an EE. Consequently, many practical EDM problems drive group emergency decision making (GEDM) problems whose main limitations are related to the lack of flexibility in knowledge elicitation, disagreements in the group and the consideration of experts’ psychological behavior in the decision process. Hence, this paper proposes a novel GEDM approach that allows more flexibility for preference elicitation under uncertainty, provides a consensus process to avoid disagreements and considers experts’ psychological behavior by using the fuzzy TODIM method based on prospect theory. Eventually, a group decision support system (GDSS) is developed to support the whole GEDM process defined in the proposed method demonstrating its novelty, validity and feasibility.}, organization = {This work was partly supported by the Young Doctoral Dissertation Project of Social Science Planning Project of Fujian Province (Project No. FJ2016C202), National Natural Science Foundation of China (Project Nos. 71371053, 61773123), Spanish National Research Project (Project No. TIN2015-66524-P), and Spanish Ministry of Economy and Finance Postdoctoral Fellow (IJCI-2015-23715) and ERDF.}, publisher = {MDPI}, keywords = {Group emergency decision making}, keywords = {Non-homogeneous information}, keywords = {Psychological behavior}, keywords = {Group decision support system}, title = {Managing Non-Homogeneous Information and Experts’ Psychological Behavior in Group Emergency Decision Making}, doi = {10.3390/sym9100234}, author = {Wang, Liang and Labella, Álvaro and Rodríguez-Domínguez, Rosa M. and Wang, Ying-Ming and Martínez, Luis}, }
