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

Life satisfaction is associated with adolescents' adaptability, academic achievement, and mental health, and it reflects the profile of a country's economic development. In this study, we assessed the psychometric properties of the Russian version of the Multidimensional Students' Life Satisfaction Scale (MSLSS). The initial adaptation of the MSLSS was performed using a sample of primary school students. Validation on a sample of early-to-middle adolescents is necessary to assess its reliability and validity for this age group. The sample comprised 2826 adolescents between ages 10 and 16 (Mage = 12.6, SD = 1.2, 41.3% girls) who completed the Russian version of the MSLSS assessing their perceived life satisfaction across five scales. While the five-factor structure of the MSLSS was confirmed, the psychometric analysis indicated that the statements function more effectively measured life satisfaction as a singular one-factor construct. We also observed a significant age-related decline in overall life satisfaction and satisfaction with family, self, school, friends, and teachers. Boys reported significantly lower satisfaction with school compared to girls. This study confirms the validity and reliability of the Russian version of the MSLSS, thereby augmenting its general applicability. Furthermore, we replicated previously reported age and gender differences in life satisfaction among early-to-middle adolescents.
