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.

TU Alert: We are monitoring weather systems and currently all campuses are open and undamaged. Employees should use caution while driving in to work. Supervisors should be accommodating with employees who may be delayed due to flooding or other weather related conditions.

  • Sourceabsent0/25

    Final assessment

    Majority 25/25 absent. No campus brand, agency name, or alert signature appears in the text.

    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 specific: the text names "flooding".

    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
    1. present: Hazard is specific: the text names "flooding".

  • Locationpresent25/25

    Final assessment

    Majority 25/25 present. Location is given through "all campuses".

    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

    2. present: Place is specified as "all campuses".
    3. present: Where is answered by "all campuses".

  • Guidancepresent25/25

    Final assessment

    Majority 25/25 present. Guidance is the instruction "TU Alert: We are monitoring weather sys…".

    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.

  • Timepresent25/25

    Final assessment

    Majority 25/25 present. Time is marked by "TU Alert: We are monitoring weather sys…".

    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

    Majority 25/25 absent. No consequence or severity language appears beyond naming a hazard.

    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: No consequence or severity language appears beyond naming a hazard.
    2. absent: Impact is absent: the text does not say what the threat could do.

    12. absent: Severity is left unstated.
    13. absent: The text stops short of impact.
    14. absent: Harm potential is not described.
    15. absent: I fails on bare description without effects.
    16. absent: No dangerous/closed/injury-style impact cue appears.
    17. absent: Impact not established by the wording.
    18. absent: Consequence detail is missing.
    19. absent: The message lacks severity framing.
    20. absent: I is absent under the impact rule.
