Computational meaningfulness as the source of beneficial cognitive biases.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 human brain has evolved to solve the problems it encounters in multiple environments. In solving these challenges, it forms mental simulations about multidimensional information about the world. These processes produce context-dependent behaviors. The brain as overparameterized modeling organ is an evolutionary solution for producing behavior in a complex world. One of the most essential characteristics of living creatures is that they compute the values of information they receive from external and internal contexts. As a result of this computation, the creature can behave in optimal ways in each environment. Whereas most other living creatures compute almost exclusively biological values (e.g., how to get food), the human as a cultural creature computes meaningfulness from the perspective of one's activity. The computational meaningfulness means the process of the human brain, with the help of which an individual tries to make the respective situation comprehensible to herself to know how to behave optimally. This paper challenges the bias-centric approach of behavioral economics by exploring different possibilities opened up by computational meaningfulness with insight into wider perspectives.
