  • Abstract
    Soft issues, such as politics and people´s feelings, are often cited as problems in the RE process. A method aimed at improving elicitation and analysis of such ´soft´ issues is described. The method consists of a taxonomy of users´ values, motivations and emotions, with process guidance for eliciting and analysing these issues for the RE process.
