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

During foraging decisions, animals often make irrational choices. The selective-value effect refers to the lack of preference for an option consisting of one highly preferred item plus one less preferred item compared to a single highly preferred item. A similar bias is the less-is-better effect, in which individuals prefer a single highly preferred item rather than an option that includes both a highly preferred item and a less preferred one. Here, we investigated the occurrence of these decisional biases in twelve tufted capuchin monkeys (
