Why this is better
Article body prose already correctly cites Effron, Cameron, and Monin (2009) in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology in both narrative mentions. However the bibliography/references list entry at the bottom of the article still had the stale, misattributed citation (missing Cameron as co-author, wrong journal/volume/pages matching a different Effron & Monin paper). Fixed the bibliography entry to match the correct citation used in the body. FAQ JSON-LD block was already clean (its Journal of Personality and Social Psychology mention refers to a separate, correctly-cited Monin & Miller 2001 paper).
