Factually incorrect

What was corrected

What the page claimed

Article attributed the optimism-bias brain finding to nucleus accumbens activity and Nature Neuroscience.

What was corrected

Corrected to the rostral anterior cingulate cortex, matching Sharot's real published finding, and corrected the journal to Nature.

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.
