AbstractThis paper aims to propose a novel multi‐attribute group decision‐making (MAGDM) method based on linguistic Pythagorean fuzzy copula extended power average operator. Existing researches under linguistic Pythagorean fuzzy environment lack of the ability to handle with extreme values and the flexible operational rules. To fill these two gaps, this paper first provides the definition of Archimedean copula and co‐copula operational rules under linguistic Pythagorean fuzzy environment, which can reflect the connection among arguments and provide more choices for experts to express their preferences. Then, we gather the extended power average (EPA) operator to present some new aggregation operators, which can reduce the negative influence of extreme evaluation values. To show the application of the proposed method to MAGDM problems, we apply it to handle a case of takeout O2O platform assessment problem. The numerical case and comparative analysis with other existing methods illustrate that our proposed method is more scientific and flexible.
