Impactpresent25/25
Final assessment
All 25 reads agree a room key, student ID, and about $220 taken from a desk is stated property harm.
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.
