True or False: What seems risky for one person may seem easy for another, and risk perception is unique to each person.

• A. Sometimes true
• B. Not enough information
• C. True
• D. False

Answer: (C)

Risk perception varies by person; what seems risky to one individual may feel easy to another. This happens because people differ in experiences, training, risk tolerance, mental and emotional state, cultural background, and the information or context they’re given. Cognitive biases—like optimism bias or the way a situation is framed—also shape how risky something appears. In practice, this means you can’t assume everyone will react the same way to a given situation or intervention; you need to assess risk from the individual’s perspective and tailor guidance accordingly. That’s why the statement is true: risk perception is unique to each person, and what seems risky for one may seem easy for another. The other options don’t fit because the subject is not universally true in a blanket way, nor is there insufficient information to assert risk perception is variable.
