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

Background: Ethiopia does not have validated tools for assessing organizational commitment. The aim of this study was to develop an Ethiopian version of the organizational commitment questionnaire (OCQ-Eth) and to evaluate its psychometric properties in the assessment of organizational commitment in healthcare organizations in Ethiopia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in 14 healthcare facilities of the Bench-Sheko zone. The collected data were entered into EpiData version 3.1. The data were then exported into STATA version 14.1 and SPSS version 22 for analysis. Confirmatory factor analysis and exploratory factor analyses were performed for psychometric evaluation of OCQ in the Ethiopian context. Results: Confirmatory factor analysis showed the original model for organizational commitment did not meet the acceptable model fit. After confirmatory factor analysis, exploratory factor analysis was performed and subsequent confirmatory factor analysis resulted in the development of OCQ-Eth with 16 items classified under four factors (continuance, affective, normative, and concern for the organization) which explained 61.2% of cumulative variance. The three measures of organizational commitment exhibited discriminant and convergent validity. The model fit was improved after exploratory factor analysis. Conclusion: The extracted factor structure exhibited acceptable goodness of fit. The instrument was fit to evaluate the organizational commitment of healthcare professionals of Ethiopia.
