“People develop an “anxiety buffering system” (Zaleskiewicz, Gasiorowska, Kesebir, Luszczynska, & Pyszczynski, 2013, p. 56) that helps protect them against existential fragility and furnishes them with psychological equanimity (Pyszczynski et al., 2010; Zaleskiewicz et al., 2015).”
From “The greedy I that gives”—The paradox of egocentrism and altruism: Terror management and system justification perspectives on the interrelationship between mortality salience and charitable donations amid the <scp>COVID</scp>‐19 pandemic (2022) · cites this paper as Pyszczynski et al., 2010

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
