Article in Journal of education and health promotion, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundPsychologically empowered employees are more innovative and proactive. Individual well-being is greatly impacted by psychological empowerment. Examining school teachers' "psychological empowerment" is important since it motivates them more than external circumstances and contributes to their well-being. Spreitzer's "Psychological Empowerment Scale" (PES) is a well-known instrument used for this purpose. Scarcity of studies on teachers' psychological empowerment and cultural differences in populations prompted the researcher to re-evaluate PES. This research would help bridge this gap by adapting PES to teachers and generating a valid and reliable measure of their psychological empowerment in India. MATERIALS AND
methodsUsing convenient sampling, data was gathered from 498 secondary school teachers (age range of 30-55 years) in Assam (India) in 2023 for this cross-sectional study. IBM SPSS version 26 was used to conduct descriptive statistics, including Cronbach's α for evaluating internal consistency. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was used to investigate the factor structure of the instrument, followed by confirmation of factor structure via Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA).
resultsEFA provided considerable evidence of 4-factor structure, viz., meaning, competence, self-determination, and impact. The 12-item factor structure depicted good reliability and evidenced good model-fit indices values.
conclusionPsychological empowerment (PE) scale with four factors and 12 items is a reliable and valid tool for assessing PE of Indian teachers. The scale can be a good resource for principals, educational administrators, and teachers themselves to assess overall as well as dimension-wise components of PE while norms development of PE as per Indian teachers is recommended.
