The obtained results underscore the effectiveness of the SDBHA in objectively determining criteria weights across various countries. Sensitivity and comparative analyses with other well-established methods, such as ENTROPY, CRITIC, SD, SVP, LOPCOW, and MEREC, were conducted to assess the sensitivity, credibility, and reliability of SDBHA. According to the findings, SDBHA is sensitive and close to a credible and reliable state. Remarkable observations include the effectiveness of SDBHA, as indicated by simulation analyses, in consistently distinguishing and determining criteria weights across various scenarios, demonstrating its stability and robustness. In conclusion, SDBHA emerges as a potent and objective criteria weighting technique, notably enhancing the DEMATEL method and providing significant contributions to the literature on MCDM.
