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

backgroundThe aim of this study was to provide the Turkish version of the Staff Attitude to Coercion Scale (SACS) and to determine its psychometric properties.

methodsThis is a descriptive and correlation design. The sample of this study consisted of 100 psychiatric staff members. The validity and reliability of the scale were assessed through translation procedures, content validity analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Reliability was further evaluated using Cronbach's alpha and item-total score correlations.

resultsThe content validity index was found to be 0.93. The scale has a three-factor structure and the Cronbach's alpha values of the subscales are 0.70 for offence, 0.87 for safety and 0.74 for treatment, respectively. The Cronbach alpha reliability coefficient of the total scale was found to be 0.86.

conclusionThe Turkish version of the SACS showed good reliability and validity, and confirmatory factor analysis revealed the same factor structure with three factors as in the original SACS.
