Xu and Chen (J Syst Sci Syst Eng 17:432-445, 2008) introduced a new decision-making technique called the ordered weighted distance (OWD) measure, having been proved useful for the treatment of situation where the available information is represented in exact numerical values. In this paper, we consider the situations with intuitionistic fuzzy and interval-valued intuitionistic information, and develop some intuitionistic fuzzy weighted distance measures such as intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighted distance (IFOWD) measure, interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighted distance (IVIFOWD) measure, intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid weighted distance (IFHWD) measure and interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid weighted distance (IVIFHWD) measure. These developed weighted distance measures are very suitable to deal with the situation where the input data are represented in intuitionistic fuzzy numbers or interval-lvalued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. Then we present a consensus reaching process for group decision making with intuitionistic fuzzy preference information based on the developed distance measures. Finally, a practical application of he developed approach to the problem of evaluating university faculty for tenure and promotion is given.
