−led Flavell to coin the term "metacognition" in a 1979 paper in American Psychologist
+led Flavell to introduce the term "metacognition" in a 1976 paper, elaborated in his 1979 paper in American Psychologist
Why this is better
Main body text had already been corrected to reflect that Flavell introduced the term in a 1976 paper and elaborated it in 1979, but a Key Definitions callout later in the body and the FAQ JSON-LD schema still stated the term was 'coined... in 1979' only. Fixed both secondary locations for internal consistency; re-encoded and verified the FAQ schema after PUT.
