Growth Mindset

## TL;DR

Growth mindset is now presented as a bounded psychology concept rather than a universal success claim. The article uses Dweck's book for the concept, Yeager and Dweck for resilience framing, and Sisk et al. for a more cautious intervention-evidence summary.

## Evidence Notes

- Dweck anchors the core definition.
- Yeager and Dweck anchor the student-resilience framing.
- Sisk et al. anchors the evidence-variation caveat for interventions.
