Statistical inference in behavior analysis: Discussant's remarks.
Article in The Behavior analyst, 1999. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
A collection of essays on the roles of inferential statistics in behavior-analytic research prompted consideration of five issues: (a) the acceptance of research that focuses on the behavior of individual organisms; (b) the need to apply methods thoughtfully; (c) the heuristic value of statistical description; (d) the treatment of aberrant data in the search for general principles; and (e) the role of derived measures in the search for invariances.
