The exact change
Unverified quotes attributed to Dr. Paul Black ("Failing a high-stakes examination provides more diagnostic information...") and Dr. Robert Bjork ("The most common mistake in exam retake preparation is treating it as a repeat..."), plus an unsupported claim that CBT produces improvement "after 6-8 sessions."
Both quotes de-attributed to plain unattributed prose (retaining the substantive claims); the CBT session-count figure softened to "meaningful improvement after a relatively short, focused course of sessions" with no specific number. Legitimate Black and Bjork academic references retained since they were not the source of the unverified pull-quotes.
Suggested change
De-attributed both quotes to plain unattributed prose preserving the underlying claims; softened the CBT session-count claim to qualitative language; retained the legitimate Black and Bjork academic references since they were not the direct source of the fabricated pull-quote sentences.
Why this is better
Removed unverified attributions and an unsupported specific statistic; preserved the underlying informational content as unattributed prose.
