The exact change
Article presented a real statistic with a decontextualized/simplified experimental framing, and attached an invented statistic to a real study whose actual measurement design does not support it.
Restored the real experimental context for the Epley/Kruger figures (email vs voice comparison); replaced the fabricated Hinds/Mortensen statistic with an accurate description of their real moderation-model findings.
Suggested change
See before/after.
Why this is better
The Newton (1990) tapper/listener study cited via Heath and Heath's Made to Stick verified as accurate; the other two citations in this article needed correction for decontextualization and fabrication respectively.
