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

Scholars have long sought to understand the separation between the active and passive states in visual working memory. Results of recent behavioral studies have provided insight into the independence of storage resources in these two states. To explore how humans distribute these resources in the active and passive states in visual working memory, we adopted the classic double-retro-cue paradigm combined with a continuous reported color wheel to ascertain whether the precision of representations maintained in active and passive states are adjustable according to the frequency of spatial cues. The results showed that two distinct resource allocation mechanisms exist in these two states beyond traditional visual working memory theory and provide further support for the separation hypothesis.
