Abstract
An intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) can be helpful in decision-making as a concept to describe uncertainty. This study proposes the application of IFS in determining research topics for students of the mathematics education study program using the normalized Euclidean distance method. This study also shows the differences in the analysis results using the max-min composition method revised by De et al. (2001) with the normalized Hamming distance method and the normalized Euclidean distance method. The results show that the normalized Euclidean distance method can determine student research topics more accurately than other methods because they are careful in looking at distance differences. The normalized Euclidean distance method provides the best distance measure with a high confidence level in terms of accuracy.
