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

With high penetration rate of social media, the influence of social media use on individuals and society has become an imperative area of research. By leveraging Taiwan national survey data on social change, this study aims to explore the effect of Facebook use on network social capital and subjective well-being across generations, and the moderating effect of generations. The findings show that (1). Facebook use may not significantly directly contribute to subjective well-being; (2) Facebook use may significantly contribute to users' accrual of network social capital; (3). Network social capital can increase subjective well-being; (4). Network social capital mediates the relationship between Facebook use and subjective well-being and, (5). Generational membership may partially moderate the relationships between Facebook use and network social capital, and the indirect relationship between Facebook use and subjective well-being.
