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.

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
Purpose: The rational strategic behavior of humanity to prioritize their self motives may lead to unethical conduct, with a potential financial consequence. Thus, this study investigates how the love of money and locus of control can affect the unethical behavior and performance of small and medium economic actors in the Indonesian context. Participants and Methods: This article examines the responses from 530 small entrepreneurs as part of the hypotheses in behavioral strategy by employing covariance-based structural-equation modeling (CB-SEM). This quantitative approach is conducted following the acceptance of the data quality requirements. Results: The findings confirm most hypotheses, leaving one insignificant nexus of locus of control and SME performance. This finding also illuminates the intangible behavior in shaping the SMEs' strategic performance. Some indirect relationships are also provided. Conclusion: This study substantiated the notion that the strategic aspect of SMEs' business relies on the behavioral construction of the actors. How entrepreneurs view their source of action internally or externally is critical in shaping how they view money achievement. A strong tendency to love money too much leads them to be more unethical and ends up in a deteriorating sign of financial performance. However, being unethical justifies the potentiality of increased income streams. This specific finding of strategic behavior corresponds to the how "unregulated morality" creates a freedom in doing business.
