Why this is better
Body text already correctly cited both journals (Human Relations for Festinger 1954, Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin for Brewer 1991). However, the bibliography/references list entry for Brewer (1991) still had the stale incorrect journal name 'Journal of Social Issues'. Corrected the bibliography entry to 'Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin' to match the body text and the actual published source, PUT to the live post, and verified via re-fetch that the fix landed cleanly with no other fields affected. FAQ field checked (decoded via base64/json/base64/json) - no mention of Festinger or Brewer in the FAQ, so no FAQ fix was needed.
