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

contextPsychological ownership (PO) is a state in which an individual feels possession over an object, organization, or entity (eg, PO over the organization where one works, PO over the profession one serves). Understanding PO could provide insight into the "vitality of the profession" as defined in the Prioritized Research Agenda for the Athletic Training Profession.

objectiveTo explore athletic trainers' (ATs') PO over their employing organizations and the athletic training profession.

designCross-sectional study.

settingWeb-based survey. PATIENTS OR OTHER

participantsClinically practicing ATs who were active members of the National Athletic Trainers' Association. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Demographic variables, Psychological Ownership Questionnaire (POQ) scores, and Psychological Ownership Questionnaire for athletic training (POQ-AT) scores were the primary outcomes measured. Descriptive statistics were calculated for the demographic variables, POQ and POQ-AT overall scores, form scores, and dimension scores. Nonparametric tests were used to investigate differences between the POQ and POQ-AT by demographic characteristics.

resultsThe ATs indicated greater PO over the athletic training profession (Z = -3.45, P = .001) than over their employing organizations. They displayed greater belongingness (Z = -9.51, P < .001) and self-identity (Z = -8.71, P < .001) and less territoriality (Z = -5.52, P < .001) and accountability (Z = -5.33, P < .001) over their profession than their organization. Those ATs who supervised others had higher overall POQ (Mann-Whitney U test = 34 372, P < .001) and overall POQ-AT (U = 36 624, P = .014) scores than ATs who did not supervise others. A difference was evident in overall POQ (Kruskal-Wallis statistical analysis H4 = 20.47, P < .001) and overall POQ-AT (H4 = 21.34, P < .001) scores by years of experience.

conclusionsRespondents indicated greater PO over their profession than their employing organizations. They demonstrated greater self-identity and belongingness and less territoriality and accountability over the athletic training profession than over their employing organization, suggesting that they were connecting aspirations and accomplishments with the profession but connecting duty and responsibility with their organizations. Years of experience and supervisor status may play roles in the level of organizational PO.
