Cognitive and emotional factors associated with the desire to cease non-suicidal self-injury.
Article in Journal of clinical psychology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundDue to cognitive and emotional differences between individuals who have and have not stopped self-injuring, we explored these in the context of desire to stop.
methodAustralian university students (n = 374) completed cognitive and emotional measures. Comparisons were made between those who had self-injured in the past 12 months and those who had not, and between individuals who reported wanting to stop self-injuring and those who did not.
resultsApproximately 20% of participants did not want to stop self-injuring. Cognitive emotional factors (psychological distress, self-efficacy to resist, difficulties regulating emotion, interpersonal functions, and outcome expectancies) differentiated individuals who had and had not stopped, but could not explain differences in desire to stop.
conclusionFactors associated with desire to stop are not the same as factors underlying behavioural cessation. Motivational approaches to changes in self-injurious behaviour would be beneficial for clinicians and their clients.
