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

introductionResearch following the COVID-19 pandemic points to many problems related to adolescents' mental condition, their coping with the organization of daily life and the implementation of school duties, which can lead to school burnout. It includes absenteeism, decreased motivation and academic performance, and a cynical attitude toward peers and teachers. A significant way to protect adolescents' mental health may be by teaching them to complete their daily duties. Still, an obstacle is the observable post-pandemic, increasing tendency to procrastinate, which can exacerbate the effects of school burnout. The study aimed to establish the impact of depression, anxiety and stress on school burnout mediated by procrastination, understood as implemental procrastination.

methodThree questionnaires were used: Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale, Implemental Delay Scale, and School burnout scale. The study comprised 344 students (57,6% females) from Polish secondary schools (high schools and technical schools), aged 14-20 years (M = 16.69; SD = 1.74). The analysis of relationships between variables studied was performed with the mediation model.

resultsAnalyses confirmed the mediating effect of implemental delay on the relationship between depression, stress and school burnout. Unexpectedly, it turned out that the burnout resulting from parental pressure significantly weakened the value of the mediator (implemental delay). In contrast, the value of the predictors (depression and stress) increased. Anxiety was found to be a nonsignificant predictor of school burnout.

conclusionThe data show that stress, depression and procrastination influence school burnout, which depends mainly on the dimension of burnout. Awareness of these relationships can support the creation of specialized prevention programs, allowing students to overcome their problems. At the same time, parents and teachers may help them understand the nature of observed disorders, which has little to do with laziness often attributed to young people.
