The interplay between motor cost and self-efficacy related to walking across terrain in gaze and walking decisions.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
Motor behaviours, like where to step and which path to walk, rely on gaze shifts to gather visual information necessary to decide the next action. Factors influencing both gaze and walking decisions are poorly understood. Here we had people choose between two paths to determine how a person's belief in their ability to walk across different terrains (i.e., self-efficacy) competed with the expected cost of walking different lengths in deciding how to allocate gaze and the choice of path. When paths differed in both length and terrain, participants directed gaze progressively more to the longer path as self-efficacy about it increased and the difference in rating with the shorter path grew. Participants also chose the higher-rated path more frequently regardless of path length. These results demonstrate that self-efficacy contributes to gaze and walking decisions and suggest that it may play a more dominant role versus energetic cost in both behaviours.
