Message elements

How the first alert is built

To check this alert, SuperGrok Heavy 4.5 (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.

Severe Thunderstorms Warning

  • Sourcepresent25/25

    Final assessment

    Majority 25/25 present. The OEM account posts a short product title that functions as an official university weather relay brand.

    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.

  • Hazardpresent25/25

    Final assessment

    Majority 25/25 present. Hazard is Severe Thunderstorms Warning, a specific threat.

    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.

    See all 25 individual reads

  • Locationabsent0/25

    Final assessment

    Majority 25/25 absent. Location is not named beyond the product title; no campus place word appears in the short text.

    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.

    See all 25 individual reads
    1. absent: Location is not named beyond the product title; no campus place word appears in the short text.
    2. absent: L is absent: the three-word title does not name a place or campus.

    4. absent: Location codes absent because no place name is in the text.
    5. absent: The text lacks a where cue such as campus or a building.

  • Guidanceabsent0/25

    Final assessment

    Majority 25/25 absent. No protective action instruction appears in the short title text.

    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.

    See all 25 individual reads
    1. absent: No protective action instruction appears in the short title text.
    2. absent: G is absent: the title does not tell recipients what to do.
    3. absent: No stay inside, shelter, or avoid language is present.

    5. absent: The text lacks a protective instruction.

    9. absent: The short product does not say what to do.
    10. absent: G absent without protective action wording.
    11. absent: No recipient instruction appears in the three-word title.

  • Timeabsent0/25

    Final assessment

    Majority 25/25 absent. Time is not marked in the short title text.

    When the message applies. A timestamp, the word now or immediately, or a phrase like until further notice tells the reader whether the danger is current and how quickly to act.

    See all 25 individual reads
    1. absent: Time is not marked in the short title text.
    2. absent: T is absent: no clock time, date, now, or immediately.
    3. absent: No temporal cue appears in the three-word title.
    4. absent: Time codes absent without a time word.
    5. absent: The text lacks a when cue.

  • Impactpresent25/25

    Final assessment

    Majority 25/25 present. Impact is only the word severe inside the product title; no consequence statement appears.

    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.

    See all 25 individual reads
    1. present: Impact is only the word severe inside the product title; no consequence statement appears.
    2. present: I is weak: severe is part of the hazard name without stated harm.
    3. present: No life-threatening, damaging, or similar impact phrase is present beyond the product name.
    4. present: Impact codes present only if severe counts; treating severe thunderstorms product name as severity cue.

    6. present: I is 1 for severe intensity language in the product title (consistent with prior OEM short form codings).

    8. present: Impact element is borderline; coding present for severe intensity token.
    9. present: The product name includes severe as a severity marker.
