Why this is better
Live article body and bibliography were already correctly fixed to Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, 13(3), 279-301. Found and fixed a residual leftover fabrication in two other independent fields: the FAQ JSON-LD block (Q1 answer still said the 1977 paper appeared in Journal of Personality and Social Psychology) and seo_keywords (still said 'JPSP' abbreviation). Both corrected to Journal of Experimental Social Psychology / JESP and re-verified live.
