The application of 80 expert confidence shows that class Z3 and Z4 are not sensitive for all interval value. The class Z2 is no more sensitive to

These three mentioned above scenarios illustrate that the alpha cut shows the interval performance according to the vagueness of expert confidence, while
the lambda can be used to measure the vagueness of expert knowledge at specific attitude value between these intervals. Performing three scenarios show that the
highest sensitivity can be observed at alpha 0.4 and lambda 0. The class Z3 and Z4 are no more sensitive at optimum alpha value, while class Z2 is not more
sensitive for λ ≥ 0.5 at all alpha value. The choice of alpha 0.6 and 0.8 at λ ≤ 0.5
illustrate the vulnerability area that is nearly same, especially for lambda 0.
