The development and evaluation of the worker-occupation fit inventory.
Article in BMC public health, 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
backgroundPerson-environment fit (PEF) theory, one of the foundational theories of occupational stress, has primarily found applications in organizational behavior and human resource management. Given the alignment between the definition of occupational stress and the essence of PEF, we introduced the concept of worker-occupation fit (WOF). To validate our theoretical model, the development of an instrument to measure WOF becomes imperative.
methodsThe Worker-Occupation Fit Inventory (WOFI) comprises three dimensions: personal trait fit (PTF), need-supply fit (NSF) and demand-ability fit (DAF). Job-related mental disorders (JRMDs) were assessed using the DASS-21. During the pre-investigation, items of the WOFI underwent screening through classic test theory (CTT) analysis. In the formal investigation, item response theory (IRT) analysis was employed to evaluate the selected items. The relationship between WOF and JRMD was verified by Pearson's correlation analysis and multiple logistic regression analysis.
resultsThe initial version consisted of 26 items. Three common factors were extracted by exploratory factor analysis (EFA): 6 items were included in the PTF, 6 items were included in the NSF, 4 items were included in the DAF, and 10 items were deleted because of unacceptable factor loadings. The confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) verified the structure of the WOFI with χ
conclusionsThe results of CTT and IRT analysis indicated that the WOFI exhibits reliability and validation. The WOF effectively predicted job-related mental disorders. Subsequent studies will delve into the influence of WOFI on diverse professions and various health outcomes.
