A usable audit has six checks, each tagged with an evidence grade from the inspected sources: anticipation phase present before a scare (measured fMRI and self-report, partly second-hand); obscurity without confusion (craft lore, plus indirect uncertainty experiment); sound cue use and whether it is a learned genre cue (qualitative); repeated-cue risk (measured for re-viewing, not for within-film repetition); darkness (lore); jump-scare physiology (not yet measured). This is a synthesis; no inspected source validates the audit itself.
