The q-ROTrFACI operator is defined and some properties are proved. Then, a novel similarity measure is developed by fusing the area and coordinates of the q-rung orthopair trapezoidal fuzzy function. Based on the above, a Choquet integral-based TODIM (CI-TODIM) method to consider the risk psychology of decision-makers is proposed and two cases are provided to prove superiority of the method.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Findings<\/jats:title>The paper investigates q-ROTrFACI operator to productively solve problems with interdependent criteria. Then, an approach is proposed to determine the center point of q--ROTrFNs and a q-rung orthopair trapezoidal fuzzy similarity is constructed. Furthermore, CI-TODIM method is devised based on the proposed q-ROTrFACI operator and similarity in q-rung orthopair trapezoidal fuzzy context. The illustration example of business models' solutions and hypertension health management are given to demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of proposed method.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Originality\/value<\/jats:title>The paper develops a novel CI-TODIM method that effectively solves the MAGDM problems under the premise of fully considering the priority of criteria and the risk preference of decision-makers, which provides guiding advantages for practical decision-making and enriches the application of decision-making
