description Abstract Many people die from suicide, and it is a significant challenge in most societies, which calls for improved assessment procedures. This work presents a risk assessment model and outlines the risk factors for suicidal attempts under conditions of risk uncertainty. This algorithm assesses risk factors entirely using an interval-valued q-rung orthopair fuzzy (ivq-ROF) set information based Sugeno–Weber aggregation operators and EDAS method. Second, it applies Positive Distance from the Average (PDA) and Negative Distance from the Average (NDA) to balance an assessment, normalize various criteria, and rank them into higher order. We proposed ivq-ROF Sugeno–Weber weighted averaging (ivq-ROFSWWA), ivq-ROFS weighted geometric (ivq-ROFSWG) operators and EDAS method for improving the process of aggregation of fuzzy information. In the final type of stage, add up the PDA and NDA scores to determine the critical risk factors. This approach also increases the accuracy of predicting suicide risk, which is a vital asset for mental health researchers and practitioners to build effective intervention and prevention initiatives. Also, the nature of the algorithm renders decisions on compound data interfaces beneficial to numerous public health situations. Its application may include understanding factors that should inform policies that touch on mental health services and enhance the utilization of scarce resources in meeting the growing demand for such services. In conclusion, this study aspires to avoid future suicides due to a solid analytical framework for the research problem.
