Why this is better

Verified live article content already contains the corrected Journal of Experimental Social Psychology attribution. Checked the FAQ JSON-LD schema field; it discusses other, correctly-cited Jost papers (Jost & Banaji 1994, Jost/Nosek/Banaji 2004, Kay & Jost 2003) but does not mention the specific Jost & Thompson (2000) paper this contribution addresses, so no secondary fabrication was present. No further action needed.
