    Summary: Group decision making (GDM), which aims to obtain a sensible decision result with several decision makers, is a common occurrence in daily life. Since the uncertainty of the objects is a thorny issue in the process of GDM, it is important to eliminate uncertainty in order to achieve an optimal decision result. Considerations of some types of preference relations based on various fuzzy sets have been presented and investigated in previous studies; in this paper, we define the interval-valued hesitant multiplicative preference relation (IVHMPR) and the multiplicative consistency of IVHMPR. Based on these, we provide a detailed discussion on the connections between the interval-valued hesitant fuzzy preference relation (IVHFPR) and the IVHMPR. Then, we give a method to check the for unacceptable consistency of IVHFPR and IVHMPR, and improve them to make the consistency acceptable. Finally, an illustrative example of selecting the optimal treatment for a lung cancer patient is given to demonstrate our work in detail.
