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

Employment offers many important benefits yet the majority of adults with disabilities are not represented in the workforce suggesting more research is needed on evidence-based vocational training for adults with disabilities (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2024). The evidence base for improving current vocational training practices can be expanded through more research on fluency-based instruction and precision teaching. Precision teaching has been demonstrated to improve skill repertoires in a number of academic settings but its application for vocational skill acquisition is still emerging. The present study evaluated precision teaching as a tool to teach employment skills and extended Cohen (2005). Thus, the purpose of this study was to determine the effects of precision teaching with frequency building on the acquisition of job skills for adults with disabilities and examine the effects of training component skills using frequency building at a simulated training site on composite skill performance at the job site requiring the vocational skill. The results suggest frequency building was successful at improving vocational component repertoires. Evaluations of fluency outcomes after aims were met found degradations in participants' component performances. Finally, maximizing the effects component skill fluency has on related composite repertoires may require composite skills to be explicitly trained.
