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

Previous research has established the lack of motivation by primary education students vis-à-vis the acquisition of the necessary key competencies compulsory in the Spanish school curriculum and this is closely linked to poor academic performance on the part of the aforesaid students. Based on this current educational reality, we present a quantitative study regarding the perception of students after the implementation of a new gamified experience in the classroom such that it integrates, for the first time and jointly, the benefits of gamification (Deterding et al., 2011a; Deterding & Zagal, 2018) with interdisciplinary methodologies (Candel, 2018; Cruz-Pichardo & Cabero-Almenara, 2020; Flores-Aguilar, 2019) and technology-enhanced transmedia narratives (Scolari 2018a, 2018b; Jenkins, 2003; Scolari 2018a, 2018b). This integrative and innovative proposal was implemented in a primary school in Valencia (Spain) between October 2019 and February 2020. The research is designed based on survey-type studies, employing an experimental cross-sectional quantitative methodology with pretest and posttest, in addition to experimental and control groups. Regarding the cross-sectional approach, descriptive analyses (means and standard deviation) have been conducted, together with histograms of each of the items in the questionnaire, as well as the
