Let \(INS_{n,p}\) denote the set of \(n\times n\) irreducible non-powerful (generalized) sign pattern matrices with period \(p\), and let \(A\in INS_{n,p}\). Motivated by the concept of the index of maximum density for irreducible Boolean matrices explored by \textit{J. Shao} and \textit{Q. Liao} [Discrete Appl. Math. 21, No.~2, 147--156 (1988; Zbl 0664.15007)], the authors introduce new parameters called the index and the generalized index of maximum ambiguous density of \(A\). Both indices are discussed for irreducible non-powerful zero-symmetric sign pattern matrices.
