Corrections Policy

Ben Carter Psychology aims to correct meaningful factual errors and improve content that is unclear, unsupported, outdated, or potentially misleading.

What May Be Corrected

  • Incorrect factual statements
  • Misrepresented research findings
  • Unsupported medical, scientific, or psychological claims
  • Broken or inappropriate source links
  • Materially misleading wording
  • Incorrect names, dates, figures, or attribution
  • Important omissions that change the meaning of a passage

Minor Edits

Spelling, grammar, formatting, readability, internal links, and other minor improvements may be corrected without a separate correction notice when they do not materially change the meaning.

Material Corrections

When a correction substantially changes a factual claim, interpretation, recommendation, or conclusion, we may add an editor’s note or update notice explaining the nature of the change.

Article Updates

An article may be revised more broadly when its structure, sources, or explanations no longer meet our current editorial standards. The original URL will normally be preserved when the subject of the article remains substantially the same.

How to Request a Correction

Send correction requests to contact@bencarterpsychology.com or use our Contact page.

Please provide:

  1. The article title and URL
  2. The exact passage in question
  3. An explanation of the concern
  4. Reliable supporting sources when available
  5. Your contact details for clarification, if needed

We review reasonable submissions, but we do not guarantee that every requested change will be accepted. Differences of opinion are not automatically factual errors.
