Mechanisms¶
- Paired Half-Life Probe
- Its central limitation is that it measures presence, not meaning: a probe can report that a correction is still remembered and thereby overstate how much protection it provides, because a remembered correction often fails to undo the belief it was meant to cancel — the continued influence effect.
This sourceShows that people can remember a correction yet continue to use the corrected misinformation in later reasoning, demonstrating the continued influence effect.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
