Measuring Family Accommodation of Childhood Anxiety: Confirmatory Factor Analysis, Validity, and Reliability of the Parent and Child Family Accommodation Scale - Anxiety.
Article in Journal of clinical child and adolescent psychology : the official journal for the Society of Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology, American Psychological Association, Division 53. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 34 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
objectiveResearch on family accommodation is burgeoning, implicating it in the development, maintenance, and treatment of childhood anxiety. Additional data are needed to guide theory development and clinical application in this area. The factors underlying family accommodation measures have never been confirmed, nor have any test-retest data been reported. The study's objectives were to provide confirmatory data of the factorial structure and the first test-retest reliability data on the most widely used measure of family accommodation of child anxiety, the Family Accommodation Scale - Anxiety (FASA), and the child-rated FASA-CR.
methodParticipants were 331 children (51% female; mean age = 10.44 yrs,
resultsEFA and CFA supported a two-factor model of family accommodation, representing Participation in child-anxiety-driven behaviors, and child-anxiety-related Modification of family routines and schedules. Test-retest reliability was satisfactory for parents and adolescents; less so for children aged 6 to 12 years.
conclusionsFamily accommodation is a key construct in childhood anxiety, with two underlying factors that can be validly and reliably assessed using FASA and FASA-CR.
