Procedures to Develop a Computerized Adaptive Testing to Advance the Measurement of Narcissistic Personality.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Narcissistic personality (NP) has recently attracted a great deal of attention. In this study, we mainly investigated the feasibility and effectiveness of using computerized adaptive testing (CAT) to measure NP (CAT-NP). The CAT in this study was simulated by the responses of several NP questionnaires of 1,013 university students as if their responses were collected adaptively. The item bank (85 items) that met the requirements of the psychometric properties of Item Response Theory (IRT) was first established, and then the CAT dynamically selected items according to the estimates of current trait level until the prespecified measurement precision is achieved. Finally, the efficiency and validity of the CAT were verified. The results showed that the proposed CAT-NP had reasonable reliability, validity, predictive utility, and high correlation. In addition, the CAT-NP could significantly save item usage without losing measurement accuracy, which greatly improves the test efficiency. The advantages and limitations of CAT in measuring NP and other psychological tests are discussed in the final section.
