CISM study material · question 209 of 1000

Two experienced assessors assign very different qualitative ratings to the same scenario. Which two remedies does SP 800-30 offer? Choose two.

  1. Defining each value clearly or characterising it by meaningful examples
  2. Deferring to whichever assessor is more senior
  3. Annotating the reason a particular value was chosen
  4. Averaging the two assessors' ratings
Show the answer

Answer: A. Defining each value clearly or characterising it by meaningful examples
C. Annotating the reason a particular value was chosen

SP 800-30 says repeatability and reproducibility of qualitative assessments are increased by clearly defining each value or illustrating it with examples, and by annotating assessed values with the reasons for them.
