Report of a possibly armed person prompts a shelter-in-place; no firearm involved

To check this alert, Claude (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.

• Sourceabsent6/25

  Final assessment

  Majority, 19 of 25, find no source present; the text references txwes.edu only as an info source, not a sender, though six reads counted that domain as identifying Texas Wesleyan.

  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.

• Hazardabsent0/25

  Final assessment

  All 25 reads agree no hazard is named; the message activates a shelter-in-place but states no 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.

• Locationpresent25/25

  Final assessment

  All 25 reads agree a location is given; the message refers to our campus and instructs staying indoors.

  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

  Final assessment

  All 25 reads agree guidance is present; recipients are told to seek shelter indoors, stay inside, and lock all exterior doors.

  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.

• Timeabsent0/25

  Final assessment

  All 25 reads agree no timing is present; no clock time, date, or recency word appears in the 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.

• Impactabsent0/25

  Final assessment

  Absent, unanimous. Reads agree the armed-person shelter notice names the hazard and gives instructions but states no explicit harm or potential 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.
