The impact of concept maps on academic achievement: A meta-analysis.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. 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 present study aimed to review master's and doctoral theses, articles and proceedings on the impact of concept maps on academic achievement and published between 2005 and 2017, and to analyze the common effect size with the meta-analysis method. In the study, the effect sizes reported in 78 studies on the effect of concept maps on academic achievement and the overall effect size reported in these studies were analyzed. The Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software was employed in data analysis. In the study, interpretations were conducted based on the effect size index published by Cohen (1988) [1]. The studies included in the meta-analysis were combined and it was determined that the structure was heterogeneous. Thus, the calculations were conducted with the random effects model in the study. The analysis findings demonstrated that the impact of the concept maps was 1.08 on academic achievement; thus, the effect was categorized as strong and positive based on Cohen's (Cohen, 1988) [1] classification. It was concluded that the concept maps were quite effective in the improvement of the academic achievements of the students and could be employed in education.
