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

In China, parents, teachers, and society generally oppose adolescent romance, believing it impedes youth from academic success. However, research that investigates factors influencing one's involvement in adolescent romance is scarce, especially among rural Chinese youth. Drawing upon 1,262 youth and their mothers in rural Gansu province, China, this study examined how gender and parenting practices in the family and community contexts influence adolescent romance among Chinese rural youth. In 2004, mothers completed questionnaires about warmth, parental punitiveness, community parenting, and parental networking. In 2009, youth in the study, the sample was 46 percent female and had an average of 20 years old, reported their romantic histories retrospectively. The study showed that 6.89 percent of youth were involved in an adolescent romantic relationship. The results of the multilevel logistic regression model suggested that girls were less likely to engage in adolescent romance than boys. Higher parental punitiveness was associated with a lower likelihood of engaging in adolescent romance. However, with the increase in parental punitiveness, girls were more likely to initiate adolescent romance. Neither parental warmth, community parenting, nor parental networking had a significant relationship with the likelihood of engaging in adolescent romantic relationships. The findings provide a holistic and nuanced understanding of individual, family, and community factors influencing rural Chinese youth's involvement in adolescent romance.
