• Impactabsent0/25

  Final assessment

  I 0/25. Sexual assault is the hazard name, and calling the person a victim adds no separate severity or consequence.

  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. absent: Sexual assault is the hazard name, and no extra severity or consequence wording appears.
  2. absent: Calling the person the victim restates that an assault occurred and adds no injury or danger clause.

  5. absent: No life-threatening, injury, or continuing-threat sentence is attached to the assault report.
  6. absent: Victim is a role word, not a statement of what the hazard could do or how severe it is.

  10. absent: Impact is absent because the only harm word is the hazard itself, sexual assault.

  16. absent: No property damage, injury detail, or serious-threat sentence is present.
  17. absent: Impact stays absent because consequence words such as dangerous or injury never appear.
