Career adaptability and work engagement: the roles of person-organization fit and job insecurity.
Article in BMC psychology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
purposeThe purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between employees' career adaptability and work engagement. Specifically, this study investigates the mediating role of person‒organization fit in the relationship between career adaptability and work engagement as well as the moderating role of job insecurity in this mediating effect.
methodsWe collected data from 248 full-time employees in China and utilized robust statistical techniques to test a moderated mediation model that includes the constructs of career adaptability, person‒organization fit, job insecurity, and work engagement.
resultsCareer adaptability is positively related to employees' work engagement, and person‒organization fit mediates the relationship between career adaptability and work engagement. Job insecurity moderates the mediating effects of person‒organization fit in this context. The relationship between person‒organization fit and work engagement is stronger at low (vs. high) levels of job insecurity.
conclusionThis research contributes to theory by demonstrating that the mediating effect of person‒organization fit and the moderating effect of job insecurity represent additional explanations of the impact of career adaptability on work engagement.
