Damian & Roberts (2015) was a single large representative-sample study (~377,000 participants), not a 2017 meta-analysis of 30 studies (~120,000); year/framing/counts corrected per the article's own reference list
BeforeA 2017 meta-analysis by Damian and Roberts examined 30 studies with a combined sample size of more than 120,000 participants
AfterA 2015 study by Damian and Roberts analyzed a large nationally representative sample of more than 370,000 U.S. high school students
Why: Verified live: body already correctly reads the 2015 study/370,000 participant framing matching the bibliography entry (Damian & Roberts, 2015, Journal of Research in Personality). Checked FAQ (5 Q&A, discusses only the Rohrer 2015 PNAS study, no mention of Damian/Roberts) and excerpt - no leftover fabrication found anywhere. Already fully correct, no further action needed.
