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

We designed a feasibility study to evaluate a mobile-based vocational skill building coaching technology (aka Mobile Coach) intervention by using an ecological design approach. We compared the Mobile Coach to a standard job coach (no Mobile Coach technology) assistance in a facility that employs adults with significant cognitive disabilities (CDs). Twenty working-age adults with CDs were enrolled in this feasibility study and were asked to use the Vocational Mobile Coach Technology (on an iPad) to assist with their daily job functions. Project-specific usability and self-satisfaction survey was used to evaluate the user experience in performing the selected work assembly tasks with the Mobile Coach and without it. This report has the goal to describe our feasibility study design, methods, and results.
