The journal title Attention, perception & psychophysics is available via SpringerLink from 1966 to date. However, prior to 2009 the journal titles was simply Perception & psychophysics; and when exporting citations for pre-2009 articles the new (and in this case inaccurate title) is utilized.  Here’s an example:

I contacted SpringerLink and they didn’t think there was anything wrong with this.  In the Academic setting this might well confuse a researcher.  

I’m sure there are others that are similar.  What can we do to prevent this?
