Demo

You can use array notation as value like in the following code.

$('#changes-selectyes').trigger('change').val(['2', '3']);

Pass Array into thee val function:

Try this code

$('selector).trigger('change').val(['1','2','3','4']);

I figured out i need to pass array inside the val() in order to pass multiple values.

$('#changes-selectyes').trigger('change').val(['1','2','3','4']);
