Shooting on 1700 block of W Susquehanna Ave

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 branded "TUalertEMER" opening and the closing "Police are responding" together name the sender and the responding agency.

  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

  Present, 25 of 25. "Shooting reported" names a violent threat outright, with no read reading it as vague.

  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 event is placed on "the 1700 block of W. Susquehanna Ave", a specific block near campus.

  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.

• Guidancepresent25/25

• Timeabsent0/25

  Final assessment

  Absent, 0 of 25. Although a shooting is reported, the text supplies no time of day, no date, and no phrase such as just occurred.

• Impactabsent0/25

  Final assessment

  Absent, 0 of 25. The alert never says what the shooting could do to people nearby or how severe the danger is.

  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.
