Abstract

Decision-makers frequently use the MADM (Multiple Attribute Decision Making) method to assist in solving decision-making issues. This approach can use a variety of algorithms, including Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) and Weighted Product (WP). The challenge in this research is determining which of the SAW and WP approaches is more pertinent or acceptable for solving scenarios involving scholarship recipient selection. Five factors were taken into consideration when deciding who would receive a scholarship: academic achievement index (GPA), parents' income, past accomplishments, participation in student organizations, and the number of parents' dependents. A sensitivity test, which involves altering the weight of each test method's criterion and then comparing the percentage change between the two ways, is one method that can be used to gauge the effectiveness of the MADM method. The SAW method implementation results show that alternative nine (MHS9) has the highest preference value, which is 0.95. The WP method implementation results show that alternative nine (MHS9) has the highest preference value, which is 0.12. The total change in the findings of the sensitivity test for the SAW method is 7.64%, compared to 2.06% for the WP method. Thus, it can be inferred that the SAW approach is thought to be pertinent for addressing the issue of choosing scholarship applicants.
