Personality traits and sexual self-efficacy in diabetic women: The mediating role of marital satisfaction and sexual function.
Article in Brain and behavior, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
introductionAlthough the relationship between personality traits and sexual self-efficacy has received theoretical and empirical support, there is little information on how personality affects the sexual self-efficacy of diabetic women. This study aimed to investigate the mediating role of marital satisfaction and sexual function in the relationship between personality traits and sexual self-efficacy in diabetic women.
methodsUsing a two-stage sampling method, 410 reproductive-aged Iranian women with type 2 diabetes were recruited in this descriptive-analytical study. The participants completed self-administered questionnaires, including the Vaziri Sexual Self-Efficacy Questionnaire, the Female Sexual Function Index, ENRICH Marital Satisfaction Scale, and the Goldberg's Big Five Questionnaire. To analyze the data, structural equation modeling was employed in Amos software version 24.
resultsResults indicated an acceptable fit of the model to the data. Personality trait of openness to experience was associated with sexual self-efficacy directly (β = .02, p = .030) and indirectly through the mediators of marital satisfaction (β = .06, p = .009) and sexual function (β = .18, p = .014). Furthermore, sexual function was associated with sexual self-efficacy directly (β = .50, p = .025) and indirectly through the mediator of marital satisfaction (β = .36, p = .012).
conclusionDue to the mediating role of marital satisfaction and sexual function, this study has some practical implications for improving the sexual self-efficacy of diabetic women with different personality traits.
