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

objectiveThe present study examines the relationship between social media addiction and cyberbullying among adolescents.

methodThis descriptive study was conducted with the participation of 1,058 adolescents aged 14 to 17, between September 1, 2018, and January 1, 2019, in the Central Anatolian region of Türkiye. Data were collected using the Adolescent Data Collection Form, the Revised Cyber Bullying Inventory II, and the Social Media Disorder Scale for Adolescents - Short Form. Data were evaluated with a Pearson's Chi-square Test, Spearman's Correlation, and Logistic Regression analysis.

resultsOf the adolescents in the study group, 23.3% were addicted to social media. Female sex and spending more time on social media increased the risk of the development of a social media addiction. Spending more time on social media increased the risk of becoming a victim of cyberbullying and cyber victimization. A strong and positive relationship was identified between social media addiction among adolescents on the one hand, and cyberbullying and victimization on the other.

conclusionThe more time spent on social media, the greater the risk of development of social media addiction, cyberbullying, and victimization.
