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

Effective communication is a vital component of behavioral consultation. Behavioral consultants (e.g., behavior analysts, school psychologists) are responsible for drafting behavior intervention plans, delivering accessible training, and providing concise and consumable feedback to teachers. Their reliance on technological descriptions to communicate behavioral principles and procedures may yield poor social validity and hinder the consultant-teacher relationship. In this study, we recruited 164 teachers through Amazon Mechanical Turk and administered a survey to (a) evaluate the social acceptability of technical and nontechnical language used in behavioral consultation across a variety of student populations and (b) gain information about teachers' experiences with behavioral consultation. Implications are discussed for training and the provision of behavioral consultation services.
