Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
In the citing paper
“Prairie voles display characteristics associated with a monogamous lifestyle, including a lack of sexual dimorphism, biparental care of offspring, and the formation of pair bonds between males and females [536].”
From Reward circuitry dysfunction in psychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders and genetic syndromes: animal models and clinical findings (2012) · cites this paper as [536]
In the citing paper
“Prairie voles (Microtus ochrogaster) show various social behaviors, such as social bonding, nurturing, allogrooming, and huddling more often than other rodents such as mice and rats (Aragona and Wang, 2004; Carter and Getz, 1993; Getz and Carter, 1996; Getz and Hofmann, 1986).”
From Helping behavior in prairie voles: a model of empathy and the importance of oxytocin (2022) · cites this paper as Carter and Getz, 1993

“However, there is a generally accepted view on the prairie vole as a species with a family-group lifestyle exhibiting social monogamy (Carter & Getz, 1993; Carter et al ., 1995; Insel et al. , 1995; Roberts et al ., 1998; Ophir et al ., 2008; Ahern et al ., 2011; Barrett et al ., 2013).”

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.
