Samenvatting

The subjective estimates of risk made by 25 chain-saw operators were compared with an objective risk distribution derived from reported accident frequencies. There was significant agreement amongst the subjects on the distribution of risk, but very little correlation between the subjects estimates and an objective distribution. The implications of such a mismatch are discussed with respect to accident prevention.
