Please immediately read the disclaimer at the top highlighted in yellow that says "These are preliminary reports, not yet peer reviewed".

Gracie, what you have done here is known as chain searching or backward reference searching. Thank you.

“Libguides” from the reference library at Florida Atlantic University defines chain searching as “identifying and examining the references or works cited in an article. It is done to study the origins and development of a theory, model, or construct on a subject of interest.“

In this cyberworld of cut-and-paste ad nauseam, the truth is often disguised, trampled, or completely lost. (Sometimes the truth never existed in the first place, like with conspiracy theories.)

I wish more people would bother to chain search.
