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

backgroundListening comprehension is particularly important in children without sight. Little research has focused on listening comprehension. There are strong correlations among syllables, morphemes, and orthographic representations in Chinese. For this reason, vocabulary knowledge may have a mediating role in morphological awareness and listening comprehension in blind children during the elementary school.

methodsThe study that included measures of children's age, working memory, rapid automatized naming, phonological awareness, morphological awareness, vocabulary knowledge, and listening comprehension was administered to 142 Chinese-speaking blind children during the early elementary level (Grades 1 to 3) and late (Grades 4 to 6). Through a mediation analysis following the bootstrapping procedures.

resultsThe study shows that (1) morphological awareness predicted listening comprehension in blind children directly; (2) after children's age, working memory, rapid automatized naming, and phonological awareness controlled, vocabulary knowledge plays a mediating role in morphological awareness and listening comprehension.

conclusionThe findings of the present study indicate the important unique role of morphological awareness and the mediation of vocabulary knowledge in blind children's listening comprehension during the elementary school years.
