Disputed The quoted sentence is real and appears in the ScienceDirect record for this article; the submitter’s ASCII ">=" corresponds to the source’s "≥", so the wording is otherwise verbatim. The article was published April 1, 2003, but it is a multi-author journal article with six named authors—Kristin L. Herron, Sonia Vega-Lopez, Karin Conde, Tripurasundari Ramjiganesh, Neil S. Shachter, and Maria Luz Fernandez—so attributing the quote to Sonia Vega-Lopez alone is a misattribution, and this platform does not collapse multi-author articles into a single-author quote.
