Responses in adult pied flycatcher males depend on playback song similarity to local population.

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
Song divergence driven by social learning has been proposed to be a key factor driving allopatric speciation in oscine birds. Songbirds often respond more to songs deriving from their local population, suggesting the potential for acoustic divergence across populations to shape both intra- and intersexual interactions. However, many of these studies were conducted on species with simple songs and, as a result, we know comparatively little about the emergence of population differences and song discrimination in species with complex songs. We addressed this question in the pied flycatcher (
