Effect of cooperative membership on farmers' technology adoption based on the mediating effects of technology cognition.

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
Agricultural cooperatives (hereafter referred to as cooperatives) are a bridge for transforming new agricultural technologies into real productivity, and they are important in technology adoption among farmers. Clarifying the impact of cooperative membership on technology adoption is an important aspect of establishing micro incentives for technology adoption among farmers. In this paper, we use the propensity score matching (PSM) method of counterfactual inference to analyze how cooperative membership promotes technology adoption among farmers by changing their technology cognition. The results show that cooperative membership can promote the adoption of water-saving irrigation technology (WSIT). Significant between-group differences exist in the effect of cooperative membership on farmers' decision to adopt WSIT such that the promotion effect is greater among farmers with larger irrigated land areas, farmers with fewer years of farming experience, and farmers with lower education levels. Technology cognition significantly promotes farmers' technology adoption. The depth of technology cognition mediates the effect of cooperative membership on technology adoption among farmers such that cooperative membership leads farmers to deepen their technology cognition and indirectly promotes technology adoption among farmers.
