Which of the following is NOT a factor in determining negligence?

Duty of Care
Damages
Duties of a Contract
Reasonable Person Standard

The correct answer is: Duties of a Contract

Factors involved in determining negligence include the duty of care, where one party has a responsibility to act in a certain way towards another party; damages, which are the harm or loss suffered by one party due to the actions of another; and the reasonable person standard, which refers to a standard of behavior that is expected of an average person in a similar situation. The duties of a contract, on the other hand, are not a factor in determining negligence as they pertain to the obligations and responsibilities outlined in a specific contract between two parties, rather than a general standard of behavior in society. Therefore, the duties of a contract do not play a role in assessing negligence.
