Differential impacts of reduced worktime on work-life balance in Korea.
Article in PloS one, 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
This study analyzes the heterogenous effects of reducing weekly work hour on workers' quality of life in Korea. Using longitudinal household data from the Korean Labor and Income Panel Study (KLIPS) from 2001 to 2017, this study aims to shed light on how the work hour reduction policy may differently affect workers with different levels of resources and support by demographic and socioeconomic status. Our estimates from the difference-in-differences approach exploiting the staggered implementation of the work hour reduction policy indicate that the policy increased leisure satisfaction of female workers with low educational level and female workers in regular or inflexible work setting. Given Korea's exceedingly long working hours and inequities in the labor market, a better understanding of the complex factors that affect work-life balance can be helpful in developing policies supportive of healthy work-life balance for workers. This study, to our knowledge, is the first to investigate the composition of workers in the Korean labor market and examine differential impacts of the workhour reduction policy by demographic and socioeconomic status.
