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.

Abstract
This research aimed at assessing the effect perceived usefulness of technology on multiple salient outcomes in Nigeria. Specifically determining how employee performance affects the perceived usefulness of technology in the oil and gas sector. The study used a descriptive research design. The target population of the study was 495 employees of selected oil and gas firms in Nigeria who have been recognized to have adopted strategies to communicate the usefulness of adopted technology in their business operations. This study used the purposive sampling technique to collect data from the employees of the selected firm. The questionnaire was used as the main data collection instrument, on a population of 495 and a total of 460 was collected back for the study analysis. A descriptive research design was adopted to establish trends related to the objectives of this study. Specifically, this research used a quantitative method (questionnaire) for the collection of data while structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data collected. The result showed that the perceived usefulness of technology has a significant effect on salient outcomes on workers in the oil and gas. Hence, the result shows that the perceived usefulness of technology contributes more to employees' satisfaction, organizational support, and employees' productivity while employees' commitment had the least. This study recommended that organizations in the oil and gas industry have to increase their efforts using strategies to improve the use of adopted technologies to promote employees' commitment. However, organizations are to maintain strategies of perceived usefulness of technology on organizational support.
