Coding peekaboom: a gaming mechanism for harvesting programming concepts.
Article in Education and information technologies, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
There are plentiful online programming resources that enable learners to develop an understanding of conceptual knowledge and practical implementation. However, learners, especially novices, often experience difficulties locating the required information to solve the programming problems. Differ from natural language in syntax and convention, answers for programming languages may not be found just by simple text information retrieval. To address this issue, Coding Peekaboom, a game-based tagging was developed to help adequately index the critical concepts of a code segment. An EEG device was applied to measure participants' mental states to identify their engagement during the gameplay. Study results include the effectiveness of appropriate concepts collected by participants whereas 47.15 concepts were collected on average in a game. The brainwave analysis and the questionnaire results reveal that participants were highly engaged in the tagging task via Coding Peekaboom. Correlations were found between the state of flow and the number of concepts selected, score, and time. Finally, the results of the flow theory and personal traits were reported to reflect the user experiences in the game.
