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

Social platforms are seen as hotbeds of political debate, where squabbles between users with different views and positions have become commonplace. From the perspective of social cognition, this study considered the individual variables (degree of political firmness and political efficacy) and situation variables (news credibility and life satisfaction) synthetically to construct a structural equation model. The purpose of this study was to explore the factors influencing users' quarrelsome behavior in political use on social platforms. The results show that users' political firmness, the credibility of news in the media environment, and real-life satisfaction all contribute to their quarrelsome behavior on social platforms.
