“…The AHP method was the most applied, representing about 43.14% of applications, i.e., 22 of the 51 analyzed articles. The application of this method was performed in different ways: using a fuzzy set approach [73,86,92] to allow for the consideration of uncertainties and partially unknown facts in the model; in conjunction with hybrid models [70,73,78,80,81]; and involving other forms of application of the method, such as the Dynamic Hierarchy Process-DHP, which is an advanced version of AHP considering temporal changes [95].…”

The Multiple Criteria Decision-Making/Analysis (MCDM/A) methods have been widely used in several management contexts. In public security, their use enhances managerial decision-making by considering the decision-maker’s preference structure and providing a multidimensional view of problems. However, methodological support for their applications in this field lacks clarity, including selecting appropriate methods, addressing pertinent problematics, and identifying alternatives and criteria. To address this gap, this article conducts a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to diagnose the state of the art and identify the main directions of the research in multicriteria models applied to public security management. The research methodology involves five main research questions, and the extraction and analysis of data from 51 articles selected through a structured filtering process. The analysis includes identifying the number of publications and citations, as well as listing the MCDM/A approaches and issues employed. Furthermore, the criteria used and the number of criteria considered are discussed, as well as the method employed. Finally, the identification of the main research directions in MCDM/A models applied to public security is presented. The findings suggest that prioritization and classification are common problematics, social criteria are frequently considered, and the AHP method is widely used, often employing fuzzy sets and hybrid models.
