Influence of introducing a story stem in an interactive play context on maternal and their four-year-old children's use of mental state language.

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
Maternal and child mental state language is associated with improved socioemotional and cognitive child development. This study examined if introducing a story stem (a narrative playing out socioemotional conflicts) in a play situation facilitated maternal and child mental state language compared to a free-play (baseline) situation, and if mothers and children with low baseline mental state language profited more from the story stem situation. Participants were 101 four-year-old children and their mothers. Maternal and child mental state language correlated and providing the story stem increased both maternal and child mental state language. Providing a story stem increased mental state language more for mothers and children groups with lowest mental state language at baseline compared to a high mental state language group. The results indicate a validation of the use of story stems to increase maternal and child mental state language within a typical population.
