Scoring function is an important factor to influence the selected results in the process of multi-criteria decision based on Vague set. In allusion to multi-criteria decision problems in fuzzy environment, firstly, this paper analyzes the current scor- ing functions in existing literature and points out their deficiencies. Some scoring functions emphasize the absolute distance between true and false membership degree and ignore the contribution of unknown degree; Some exaggerate the influence of unknown information; Some scoring functions use unknown information improperly. Some evaluation results are inconsistent with the intuition because of these deficien- cies. Then this paper puts forward a new scoring function which simultaneously takes into account the contribution of true and false membership degree and un- known degree based on predecessors’ work. The new scoring function not only solves
the discrepancy between evaluation results and intuition, but also gives a reasonable decision rule when the scoring function values are equal, and it provides a convenient and effective method fo the optimal decision of the decision-makers. Finally, the examples show that the new scoring fnction is more efficient and advantageous.
