Network Analysis of Internalizing and Externalizing Symptoms in Arab Gifted Children: A Cross-Sectional Study.

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
The current paper aimed to estimate the network structure of general psychopathology (internalizing and externalizing symptoms/disorders) among 239 gifted children in Jordan. This cross-sectional study with a convenience sampling method was conducted between September 2023 and October 2024 among gifted children aged 7-12. The Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) was employed to assess six symptom clusters: conduct problems, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and oppositional defiant problems as externalizing symptoms, and affective problems, anxiety issues, and somatic complaints as internalizing symptoms. We used the network analysis perspective by graphical least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (gLASSO) and the Extended Bayesian Information Criterion (EBIC). These methods were used to determine network structure and important nodes in the estimated network. "Sleeps less" (centrality strength = 2.04, edge weight = 0.33) was the central symptom in the affective cluster. In contrast, "worries" (centrality strength = 1.89, edge weight = 0.28) and "headaches" (centrality strength = 2.35, edge weight = 0.41) were pivotal in the anxiety and somatic clusters, respectively. The findings suggested that these symptoms had critical roles in the context of the general psychopathology among gifted children. Accordingly, the mentioned symptoms should be assessed and targeted among gifted children. Future studies could evaluate the results of targeting these symptoms on gifted children's well-being and daily functions.
