Abstract-Preference modelling based on Atanassov's intuitionistic fuzzy sets are gaining increasing relevance in the field of group decision making as they provide experts with a flexible and simple tool to express their preferences on a set of alternative options, while allowing, at the same time, to accommodate experts' preference uncertainty, which is inherent to all decision making processes. A key issue within this framework is the provision of efficient methods to rank alternatives, from best to worse, taking into account the peculiarities that this type of preference representation format presents. In this contribution we analyse the relationships between the main method proposed and used by researchers to rank alternatives using intuitionistic fuzzy sets, the score degree function, and the well known choice degree based on Orlovsky's non-dominance concept for the case when the preferences are expressed by means of fuzzy preference relations. This relationship study will provide the necessary theoretical results to support the implementation of Orlovsky's non-dominance concept to define the fuzzy quantifier guided non-dominance choice degree for intuitionistic fuzzy preference relations.
