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

objectivesThis research project aims to build capacity for social skills interventions for ASD for adolescents in community mental health settings in Delaware, using The Program for the Education and Enrichment of Relational Skills (PEERS), a social skills group program developed at UCLA.

methodsAim 1: A two-day education on PEERS was provided to community clinicians (n=15), and clinicians completed a survey assessing their perception of implementing a social skills group intervention for families at three time points. Aim 2: Five PEERS groups were held at three community mental health locations. Caregivers (n=14) completed rating scales assessing family quality of life, social skills, or parenting stress.

resultsClinicians reported increased confidence in their ability to deliver social skills intervention following two-day education on PEERS. Furthermore, the clinicians who facilitated a PEERS group (n=9) reported a clinically significant increase in confidence. Fourteen families completed PEERS; no difference was reported regarding family quality of life, social skills, or parenting stress.

conclusionsThis study shows the feasibility of expanding social skills interventions for children and families affected by ASD into community mental health settings, as 15 clinicians received additional education regarding social skills interventions and five more group opportunities using the PEERS program were made available in the community.
