This paper presents a methodological framework to explore the cognitive processes implemented by members of a software development team to manage ambiguous situations at the stage of product requirements definition. Fuzzy Cognitive Maps are used in the framework to elicit cognitive schemes and develop a measure of individual ambiguity tolerance.
