Establishing a standard emotion processing battery for treatment evaluation in adults with autism spectrum disorder: Evidence supporting the Mayer-Salovey-Caruso Emotion Intelligence Test (MSCEIT).
Article in Psychiatry research, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and schizophrenia are neurodevelopmental disorders which show markedly similar deficits in emotion processing, yet treatment evaluation in ASD and treatment comparisons across ASD and schizophrenia are constrained by a lack of empirical work validating a standard emotion processing battery across ASD and schizophrenia. Encouragingly, the Mayer-Salovey-Caruso Emotion Intelligence Test, version 2.0 (MSCEIT (Mayer et al., 2003) spans the range of emotion processing deficits in schizophrenia and ASD. This study therefore aimed to establish MSCEIT's factorial, measurement, and structural invariance in community-residing adults with schizophrenia (N = 103) and ASD (N = 113) using multigroup confirmatory factor analysis. Consistent with prior studies in normative populations, a two-factor structure comprised of emotional experiencing and emotional reasoning was supported in ASD and schizophrenia. Both groups operationalize MSCEIT measures similarly, with all measures except for Facilitation and Management showing comparability across groups. To our knowledge, this study is not only the first to establish the measurement and structural invariance of a standard emotion perception battery in adults with ASD, it is also the first to establish its comparability across ASD and schizophrenia. Ultimately, these findings underscore MSCEIT's utility for standardizing treatment evaluation of social cognitive outcomes across the autism-schizophrenia spectrum.
