Which term from the decision-making framework corresponds to the 'Probability event or behavior will occur'?

• A. Chance of a negative outcome/consequence
• B. Level of potential harm
• C. Probability event or behavior will occur
• D. Team Control Position

Answer: (C)

Understanding the likelihood of a behavior occurring is the key idea here. In crisis decision-making, you assess how likely it is that a specific behavior will happen, and that probability guides how you respond—how quickly, how strongly, and what kind of intervention is appropriate. The term that matches this is the one that explicitly describes the chance that the behavior will occur, because it directly informs risk assessment and decision-making.

The other aspects describe different parts of risk: the chance of a negative outcome focuses on what could happen after the behavior occurs, not the likelihood of the behavior itself; the level of potential harm is about how serious the consequence could be if the behavior occurs, not how likely it is; and team control position is about where team members are positioned and how they manage safety, rather than the probability of the behavior.
