Analysis on the Uncertainties of Human Factors and the Corresponding Avoidance Measures in Predictive Reporting

Cunchang Wang

Abstract


Predictive activity is a way for human beings to pursue certainty of life, and predictive reporting is a version of predictive activity in the field of journalism and communication. It is worth noting that there are four kinds of roles that humans play in predictive reporting. They are the service object, the predictor, the predictive object and the receiver of the predictive results. The results of the predictive reporting are often affected by these four human factors, thus causing different degrees of uncertainty. This paper aims to explain the specific performance of human factors that cause the uncertainty of predictive results and the corresponding avoidance measures, in order to reduce the error of predictive reporting and pursue the certainty of human future.
