Zhou & Xu. (2019) . Conducted a research study on investment decision making based on the asymmetric hesitant fuzzy sigmoid preference relations, especially in a financial investment decision-making process to be an  important factor for   the investors’ risk appetites.Zhou & Xu. (2019)stated that there are various investment schemas for the investment decision makers  to select different investment schemes when facing the same investment alternatives due to their own risk appetites. The authors  investigated  the measurement approach of the investor’s risk appetite under the hesitant fuzzy environment and propose an asymmetric sigmoid numerical scale (ASNS) to depict the investor’s risk appetite. Zhou, & Xu  based  their study on the hesitant fuzzy preference relations and  developed  the asymmetric hesitant fuzzy sigmoid preference relations (AHSPR). The authors noted that a hesitant fuzzy investment decision-making method based on the investor’s risk appetite can be an investment decision making processes  strategies for financial qualitative investment decision making processes.

Aydiner, Tatoglu, Bayraktar, & Zaim. (2019). Conducted a research study usingthe resource-based view (RBV) through  a set of hypotheses  formulation  to examine these links, considering the role that may be played by decision-making performance and business-process performance as mediating variables. Aydineret al .,(2019) expressed that this  study contributes to the extant literature on information management by investigating the interrelationships between information systems (IS)-related capabilities and their effects on firm performance. The authors stated that the structural equation modeling (SEM) has been applied to a sample of 204 firms in Turkey, and  the test results obtained confirm the proposed serially mediating model according to which decision-making performance and business-process performance play a critical mediating role in the human resource and administrative-related IS capabilities, and firm-performance relationships. Aydiner concluded that no support have been  found concerning the serial mediation effect between infrastructure-related IS capabilities and firm performance.

Bogdanović,  & Hadžić, . (2019). Conducted a research Strategic multicriteria decision-making process in agriculture. Bogdanović,  & Hadžić  expressed that the  plantations in agriculture do not require large investments; therefore financial yields with this type of investments are limited. On the other hand The authors stated that the  investment in perennial plantations, such as walnuts, hazelnuts or apples can be significantly higher, but the ROI or the return on such investment was therefore much higher than those on classic crop production which making complex strategic decisions in agriculture, like whether to invest in an annual or move to perennial plantations, has been out of the sight for economic theorists for a long time. Bogdanović,  & Hadžić noted that  the scientific contribution of this article was an effective use of a hybrid model that combines a quantitative method  such as the Net Present Value (NPV), and a qualitative method  such as the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) in a multicriteria decision-making environment which proved that choosing the perennial plantations is a better long term investment strategy then the classic crop production. The authors argued that the  results have shown that the AHP prioritizing in the multi-criteria decision-making process, regarding the choice of the investment strategy in an agricultural production could clear many doubts when deciding upon alternatives for a period of 30 years. Bogdanović,  & Hadžić concluded that  the creation of such AHP-NPV hybrid method in order to facilitate investment decisions in agriculture to be an effective investment decision making  processes strategies ,and a great scientific contribution of the research.
