An online study records a technical identifier that makes re-identification unlikely but possible. If re-identification occurred, disclosure of the sensitive responses could seriously harm a participant. How should the study risk be evaluated?

Only by the probability that re-identification will occur Only by the seriousness of the possible harm By considering both the probability and the magnitude of possible harm As minimal risk whenever direct names are not collected

Correct Answer:

By considering both the probability and the magnitude of possible harm

Risk assessment requires considering both likelihood and severity. A low probability of identification does not by itself make the risk trivial when the consequences of disclosure could be serious.
