Using Learner Reviews to Inform Instructional Video Design in MOOCs.
Article in Behavioral sciences (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Videos are arguably the most important and frequently used instructional resource in massive open online courses (MOOCs). Recent research has explored learners' perceptions and preferences regarding MOOC instructional videos. However, these studies are often limited to a small number of specific courses, and few grounded theory studies have been undertaken to investigate this topic. In the present study, a multiple-coder research methodology was adopted to analyze 4534 learner reviews of MOOCs in 14 categories. The study aimed to identify key characteristics associated with learners' favorable perceptions of MOOC videos, types of supplemental or in-video resources learners perceive helpful to support MOOC video use, and video production features learners value. Results revealed that (a) "organized", "detailed", "comprehensible", "interesting", and "practical" were the top five important characteristics associated with learners' favorable perceptions of MOOC videos; (b) learners perceived "presentation slides", "reading materials", "post-video assessments", "embedded questions", and "case studies" as helpful resources to support their utilization of MOOC videos; and (c) learners found "duration" a more salient production feature than "editing", "resolution", "subtitles", "music", or "voice". The findings present implications for MOOC video design and foundations for future research avenues.
