The exact change
Before
Article attributed the optimism-bias brain finding to nucleus accumbens activity and Nature Neuroscience.
After
Corrected to the rostral anterior cingulate cortex, matching Sharot's real published finding, and corrected the journal to Nature.
Suggested change
See before/after.
Why this is better
Verified the specific brain regions and journal against Sharot's real published papers; found the region substituted and the journal muddled between two related but distinct papers.
How this record is verified
- The contribution is tied to a real, identified contributor, not an anonymous byline.
- It counts only because the publisher, When Notes Fly, accepted it. Self-claimed work earns nothing.
- It is recorded against a specific page and cannot be bought or edited after the fact.
