Why this is better

Body content was already correctly fixed (David Lykken and Auke Tellegen's set point theory: ~80 percent; Open Science Collaboration: ~25%). However the FAQ field's 'What does research say about hedonic adaptation and the set point theory of happiness?' answer still had the stale, unfixed 50% figure attributed to Lykken and Tellegen (the 50% belongs to the separate, later Lyubomirsky et al. model, which the body correctly keeps at 50% for its own model). Fixed the FAQ answer to say 80% for Lykken and Tellegen, matching the corrected body text, and re-encoded/verified the faq field.
