Studying engagement in educational settings: a mapping review on high-impact academic engagement research.
Synthesis in Frontiers in psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Introduction: Academic engagement provides opportunities and resources for students to engage in socio-educational interactions and learning. Our study provides an overview of high-impact research in academic engagement and the potential causes of its high valuation in the scientific community. Methods: We conducted a mapping review using bibliometric analysis of 1,607 articles indexed in Web of Science, processed mainly by VOSviewer software. Results: The publication of selected articles grew exponentially year by year, presenting concentration levels of 1% in authorship, 49% in a single country, and 5% in journals, identified as outstanding Keywords plus® central aspects of academic engagement (classroom-social environment and school engagement), in addition, 6% were in highly cited articles. Conclusion: These highly cited articles (6%) are associated with authors with high levels of publication. The most cited current topics relate to the motivation and emotional aspects of academic engagement.
