Fuzzy sets in social sciences: An overview of related researches
Mohd Lazim Abdullah1, Wan Salihin Wan Abdullah2, Abu Osman Md Tap3.
A mathematical modelling based on the fuzzy sets theory is synonymous with the fields of engineering and computer science. Since the phenomena of fuzziness in the real world
is also closely related with human beings, this paper discusses the application of fuzzy sets in social sciences. An overview of related research is presented, which focuses on an example of social research using a fuzzy model to measure the fuzzy data from a questionnaire. This paper
also discusses the questionnaire that is used to collect data by many researchers in social sciences and the elements of fuzziness in it. The vague attributes and labels of a linguistic variable from the questionnaire would be transformed into standard mathematical values. This fuzzy model offers a substantial improvement in data analyses and gives more accurate conclusions. In short,
this paper gives a new insight of the vast contribution of fuzzy sets in social sciences.
Pemodelan matematik yang berasaskan set kabur selalunya dikaitkan dengan pengajian dalam bidang kejuruteraan dan sains komputer. Oleh kerana fenomena kekaburan dalam kehidupan dikaitkan dengan kemanusiaan, maka kertas kerja ini membincangkan penggunaan set kabur dalam sains sosial. Satu kajian berkaitan dibentangkan di mana contoh menggunakan model kabur untuk mengukur data kabur daripada soal selidik dikemukakan. Kertas kerja ini turut membincangkan soal selidik yang banyak digunakan dalam penyelidikan sains sosial serta unsur kekaburan yang terlibat. Atribut dan label bagi pembolehubah linguistik daripada soal selidik yang tidak jelas diubah kepada yang ada nilai matematik. Model kabur ini menyediakan pembaikan dalam analisis data serta memberi kesimpulan yang lebih tepat. Kertas kerja ini memberi satu kefahaman baru tentang penggunaan meluas dan sumbangan set kabur dalam sains sosial.
