    4 corrections applied: The Moscovici, Lage & Naffrechoux (1969) blue-green study was published in Sociometry, not EJSP. | Maass & Clark (1984) 'Hidden Impact of Minorities' was published in Psychological Bulletin. | Nemeth (1986) 'Differential Contributions...' was published in Psychological Review. | The seating-position / personal-injury settlement study is Nemeth & Wachtler (1974, Sociometry);

    the 1983 EJSP paper was a separate creativity study.

    Before

    <h3 id="case-3-nemeth-and-wachtler-1983--consistency-and-seating-position">Case 3: Nemeth and Wachtler (1983), Consistency and Seating Position</h3>

    After

    <h3 id="case-3-nemeth-and-wachtler-1974--consistency-and-seating-position">Case 3: Nemeth and Wachtler (1974), Consistency and Seating Position</h3>

    Why: The Moscovici/Maass-Clark/Nemeth journal-name corrections and the seating-position study body prose were already correctly fixed (Sociometry 1969, Psychological Bulletin 1984, Psychological Review 1986, and the seating-position study correctly described as Nemeth & Wachtler published in Sociometry in 1974).

    However the section heading (and its anchor id) directly above that paragraph still read 'Case 3: Nemeth and Wachtler (1983)', inconsistent with the correctly-dated body text below it and the genuinely separate 1983 EJSP creativity paper cited elsewhere. Fixed the heading and anchor id to 1974 to match the body. FAQ JSON-LD block was already clean on all four facts.
