Abstract :
This paper focus on the modeling of a qualitative real world dynamic system: the day to day behavior of purse seine fishing fleet skippers. The model is based on a dynamic cognitive mapping approach (rule based fuzzy cognitive maps - RB-FCM) where several developments had to be made in order to obtain a workable system. The model is intended to be used to test the effectiveness of different biological management scenarios, such as catch restrictions, marine closed areas, seasonal fishing bans, etc.
