Mechanisms¶
- Point-of-Action Confirmation
- Its failure mode is confirmation habituation: a prompt that appears too often, or asks too little, trains users to dismiss it reflexively, so that when the dangerous one appears they click through it exactly as they clicked through the last hundred harmless ones.
This sourceDemonstrates that repeated exposure to security warnings produces habituation, declining attention, and substantially lower warning adherence over time.

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.
