Abstract
The quantification of risk is gaining importance in many fields, including geotechnical engineering. Landslide risk management systems are gradually maturing in various countries. Following a review of acceptable risks and the psychology of risk perception, a study of landslide risk perception in Australia and Hong Kong is detailed. The general views of those surveyed on landsliding, issues of land development regulation and remedial costs, a comparison of landsliding to other hazards, cognitive structures, the perception of a quantified annual loss of life frequency, a ranking of various landslide situations to each other, and acceptable probabilities of landsliding for loss of life and property damage were obtained, analysed, and discussed.
