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

This study aimed to assess the effect of distance learning on students' self-directed learning skills and motivation during the lockdown period of the COVID-19 pandemic. The study relies on a quantitative methodology. The data were collected using an administrative online survey distributed to 427 respondents with different majors (BBA) enrolled in the learning skills and scientific research skills course (obligatory course) in the second semester of the academic year 2020/2021 at The University of Jordan. Regression analysis was used to analyze the proposed hypotheses. The results showed that the independent variable (Distance Learning) positively influenced students' motivation and self-directed learning skills. The recommendations based on the outcomes of this research are useful for educational specialists to develop learning environments about the effects of distance learning on students' self-directed learning skills and motivation. In terms of limitations, the analysis was performed in one university only; therefore, attention must be paid when generalizing the results.
