As a generalization of linguistic q-rung orthopair fuzzy set (Lq-ROFS), linguistic interval valued q-Rung orthopair fuzzy set (LIVq-ROFS) is a new concept to deal with complex and uncertain decision making problems which Lq-ROFS cannot handle. Due to the lack of information in decision making process, decision makers mostly prefer to give their preferences in interval form rather than a crisp number. In this situations, LIVq-ROFS appears up as a useful tool. In this work, we define operational laws of LIVq-ROFS and prove some properties. Furthermore, we propose the conception of the LIVq-ROF weighted averaging operator and give its formula by mathematical induction. To compare two or more linguistic interval valued q-Rung orthopair fuzzy numbers (LIVq-ROFNs), the improved form of score function is also given. Considering the powerfulness of LIVq-ROFSs handling ambiguity and complex uncertainty in practical problems, the key innovation of this paper is to develop the linguistic interval-valued q-rung orthopair fuzzy VIKOR model that is significantly different from the existing VIKOR methodology. The computing steps of this newly created model are briefly presented. Finally, the effectiveness of model is verified by an example and through comparative analysis, the superiority of VIKOR method is further illustrated.
