1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundWe aimed to investigate the reliability and validity of the Iranian version of the short form social well-being scale.

methodsAfter linguistic validation, the Iranian version of social well-being scale was completed by 715 participants, aged ≥18 yr between Jan and Sep 2015. Concurrent validity was examined by calculating the Pearson's correlation coefficient between the dimensions of social well-being and social support. Internal consistency, Cronbach's alpha coefficient, confirmatory and explanatory factor analyses were also examined.

resultsThe internal consistency as measured by Cronbach's alpha coefficients was 0.72 for total score. No ceiling and floor effect was found in total score or any of the subscales. The concurrent correlation coefficients between social well-being and social support ranged from good to excellent agreement. Exploratory factor analysis supported mainly comparable results with the original US English dialect version. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis for 5-factor models indicated acceptable fit for the proposed research models.

conclusionThe findings support the initial reliability and validity of the Iranian version of the social well-being scale in the research and community settings in Iran.
