Use of Goal Attainment Scaling to Measure Educational and Rehabilitation Improvements in Children with Multiple Disabilities.
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. Cited by 2 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
With a focus on children with multiple disabilities (CMD), the purpose of this quality improvement project was to elevate educational measurement and practices involving CMD. Using the goal attainment scaling (GAS) methodology, this project was conducted within a public charter school, Pattison's Academy for Comprehensive Education (PACE), focusing on 31 CMD and measuring student improvement and program effectiveness. For 2010-2011 and 2011-2012, improvements were demonstrated for the majority of CMD by meeting or exceeding their goals. Goal attainment scaling was able to capture improvement in educational and rehabilitation goals in the majority of CMD. Goal attainment scaling can provide an indication of a program's effectiveness. The use of GAS in CMD has potential to maximize participation across the school setting where all children in the United States commonly develop and learn skills as well as find meaning.
