Stolen motor vehicle timely warning for campus community

To check this alert, Claude Opus 5 (an AI) read it in full 25 separate times, independently. Each read decided whether the message answers each of the six questions and gave a short reason. A final reviewer then weighed all 25 and wrote the plain-English verdict you see when you open a row. The score (for example 22/25) is how many reads agreed; the 25 individual reads are tucked underneath if you want to check them.

  Final assessment

  Present, 25 of 25. The issuing office names itself at the top: "The Brown University Department of Public Safety provides this notice in compliance with the Timely Notice provision" of the Clery Act.

  Who is sending the alert and who is responding. People act faster on a message from a clearly identifiable, credible sender, such as a named department, the police, or a branded alert system, than on an anonymous notice. A branded signature counts.

  Final assessment

  Present, 25 of 25. The crime is named plainly, "a stolen motor vehicle," with the owner parking at 9:00 AM and returning at 5:00 PM to find "it was gone."

  What the threat actually is. A complete warning names the specific danger, such as a shooter, a fire, a tornado, or a gas leak, rather than a vague emergency, because people decide what to do based on what they are facing.

• Locationpresent25/25

  Final assessment

  Present, 25 of 25. The theft site is "Brook Street," where the community member "parked her car," and the same street is repeated under the Location heading.

  Where the threat is. Saying whether danger is in a specific building, a part of campus, or area-wide lets people judge their own proximity and choose a safe direction. Without a where, a warning is hard to act on precisely.

  Final assessment

  Present, 25 of 25. The safety bullets tell readers to "Report suspicious behavior, even when you are not directly threatened" and to call Brown DPS or Providence Police if they feel unsafe.

  The protective action to take. A clear, specific instruction, such as shelter in place, evacuate, avoid the area, or run-hide-fight, drives faster and more correct protective behavior than describing the threat alone.

  Final assessment

  Absent, 0 of 25. The notice records only that a car was taken and is under investigation; it never states any harm, danger or severity flowing from the theft.

  What the hazard could do to the people in its path. Beyond naming the threat, a complete warning conveys its potential consequences or severity, such as that a tornado can level buildings or that a leak could be explosive, so recipients grasp how much danger they are in. Research on warning message content finds that a concrete impact statement helps people personalize their risk and act sooner.
