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

We conducted a descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study using an online survey to explore the personality traits of volunteers in Lebanon and examine their relationship with work engagement, psychological status, resilience, and public service motivation. A total of 270 volunteers were recruited through social media platforms. The survey included general questions about volunteering, Utrecht Work Engagement Scale-9 items (UWES-9), the Big Five Personality Inventory-10 (BFPI-10), the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), the Public Service Motivation (PSM), and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale-2 (CD-RISC2). The results revealed that agreeableness and conscientiousness levels were significantly lower among volunteers with low work engagement compared to those with high work engagement. Work engagement was positively correlated with agreeableness and conscientiousness and negatively correlated with neuroticism. Logistic regression showed that being single with a low level of conscientiousness, public service motivation, and resilience predicted low work engagement. Mediation analysis showed that conscientiousness, public service motivation, and resilience directly influenced work engagement, and depression mediated the relationship of conscientiousness and resilience with work engagement. This study highlights the importance of personality traits, mental health, and motivation in understanding work engagement among volunteers, which can help in designing strategies to enhance volunteers' experiences, well-being, and productivity.
