Nattier, Jan. “Brief Communication: A Reassessment of the Dates and Translator Attributions of the Laonüren jing (老女人經) T559 and the Laomu jing (老母經) T561 .” ARIRIAB 10 (2007): 529-532.
Traditionally ascribed to Zhi Qian, but T561, which is treated in the canon as an anonymous Liu Song trans., actually matches Zhi Qian much better in style.

Actually matches Zhi Qian much better in style than T559, which is ascribed to him. Thus, T561 should be reascribed to Zhi Qian. See also Nattier (2008): 144-145. T561 is merely a "lightly revised version" of T559, which is older.
