Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Assumption Analysis

    Why it's wrong here

    This identifies assumptions but does not resolve disagreements on impact severity.

  • Standardized Probability and Impact Matrix

    Why this is correct

    Using a pre-agreed matrix forces stakeholders to map their subjective opinions to objective scale definitions.

  • Risk Data Quality Assessment

    Why it's wrong here

    This measures the reliability of data, not the disagreement on impact.

  • Expert Judgment

    Why it's wrong here

    This relies on subjective authority, which may perpetuate the disagreement.
