Spreading the Wealth: Developing Assessments of Cognitive Abilities in Non-WEIRD Countries.
Article in Integrative psychological & behavioral science, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
In this brief essay I reminisce on the ideas I encountered in Lev Vygotsky's lectures on pedology as an undergraduate student at Moscow State University in the USSR. Some of these ideas have been reliably stored in my professional memory and have influenced how my colleagues and I have approached the assessment of IQ (or general cognitive abilities) in countries other than the ones in which they were developed. Whereas the essay is autobiographical in nature, it attempts to make a generalizable point that spreading the wealth of existing knowledge, principles, and practice is as central to the progress of science as generating new knowledge.
