State whether the following is true or false.
Two map readers weighing the same evidence may reach different but equally defensible interpretations.

  • A.True
  • B.False
  • C.True only at large scales
  • D.False only at small scales

Answer: A

Correct answer: True

Interpretation is inference from incomplete evidence, so two readers may weigh the same features differently and reach different conclusions, each properly argued from what the sheet shows. What distinguishes a good interpretation is not certainty but that every part of it is grounded in something on the map.
