   1 flagged finding: a generic composite-sounding quote attributed to Dr. Carol Dweck with no citation to a specific paper or book page.

   Before

   "Students who learned to view errors as part of the learning process -- as necessary data rather than evidence of failure -- showed greater persistence, deeper engagement with difficult material, and superior long-term retention compared to students who viewed errors as reflections of ability." -- Dr. Carol Dweck, Department of Psychology, Stanford University

   After

   Carol Dweck's broader body of research suggests that students who learn to view errors as part of the learning process -- as necessary data rather than evidence of failure -- tend to show greater persistence, deeper engagement with difficult material, and better long-term retention compared to students who view errors as reflections of fixed ability.

   Why: De-attributed a generic composite-sounding quote credited to Dr. Carol Dweck with no citation to a specific paper or book page. Reframed as a summary of her broader body of research rather than a specific quotation, preserving the underlying claim.
