Psychotic experiences among Black college students in the United States: The role of socioeconomic factors and discrimination.
Article in Schizophrenia research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundPsychosis is more prevalent among Black individuals compared with White individuals. However, it is unknown whether this disparity exists among college populations in the United States, and if so, what factors contribute to the disparity.
methodsWe analyzed data from Black and White young adult students using the Health Minds Study (2020-2021), which is a survey administered at 140 colleges in the U.S. Using mediation analysis, we examined the extent to which the relation between race and psychotic experiences was mediated by socioeconomic factors (past and current financial distress, food insecurity, parental education) and discrimination.
resultsApproximately 38 % of Black students and 30 % of White students reported lifetime psychotic experiences. Including all socioeconomic factors together in the same model accounted for just over half (50.2 %) the association between race and psychotic experiences. We then conducted additional analyses examining discrimination, all the socioeconomic factors plus discrimination accounted for 81.5 % of the association between race and psychotic experiences. When disentangling the mediators, food insecurity and discrimination accounted for the largest percentages of the association. The effects of past financial distress and parental education were modified by race.
conclusionBlack college students were more likely to report lifetime psychotic experiences than their White counterparts. Moreover, socioeconomic factors and discrimination made significant contributions to this racial difference.
