Factor analysis in personality disorders research: Modern issues and illustrations of practical recommendations.
Review in Personality disorders, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
The development of factor analysis is uniquely situated within psychology, and the development of many psychological theories and measures are likewise tethered to the common use of factor analysis. In this article, we review modern methodological controversies and developments of factor analytic techniques through concrete demonstrations that span the exploratory-confirmatory continuum. Also, we provide recommendations for working through common challenges in personality disorders research. To help researchers conduct riskier tests of their theory-implied models, we review what factor analysis is and is not, as well as some dos and don'ts for engaging in the process of model evaluation and selection. Throughout, we also emphasize the need for closer alignment between factor models and our theories, as well as clearer statements about which criteria would support or refute the theories being tested. Consideration of these themes appears promising in terms of advances in theory, research, and treatment surrounding the nature and impact of personality disorders.
