    Larger-amygdala result is from Schluter et al. 2018, not 2014 (2014 paper was about connectivity, not volume)

    Before

    A 2014 neuroimaging study by Schluter and colleagues found that chronic procrastinators had a significantly larger amygdala than non-procrastinators, and showed weaker functional connectivity between the amygdala and the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex.

    After

    A 2018 neuroimaging study by Schluter and colleagues found that chronic procrastinators had a significantly larger amygdala than non-procrastinators, and showed weaker functional connectivity between the amygdala and the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex.

    Why: Content already correctly fixed on the page (verified: '2018 neuroimaging study by Schluter' is present, no stale '2014' in this sentence). FAQ field checked, no related content. Backfilling before/after for the record.
