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

This paper studied the relationship and mechanisms of parent-child relationship, interpersonal relationship on campus, academic self-efficacy and academic burnout among adolescents. A study of 913 Chinese junior high school students from Fujian province (47.20% males, mean age = 13.99 years, SD = 0.81) was conducted using the Junior Middle School Students' Learning Weariness Scale, the Chinese version of parent-child affinity scale, the Loso Wellbeing Questionnaire, and the Academic Self-efficacy Questionnaire. (1) Academic burnout was negatively and significantly correlated with parent-child relationship (r = - 0.13, p < 0.01), interpersonal relationship on campus (r = - 0.11, p < 0.01), and academic self-efficacy (r = - 0.13, p < 0.01). Parent-child relationship was positively and significantly correlated with interpersonal relationship on campus (r = 0.23, p < 0.01) and academic self-efficacy (r = 0.38, p < 0.01). Interpersonal relationship and academic self-efficacy were positively and significantly correlated (r = 0.29, p < 0.01). (2) Parent-child relationship can significantly and negatively predicte academic burnout (β = - 0.082, p < 0.05). (3) Parent-child relationship affected academic burnout of adolescents via three significant indirect effects: the single mediating effect of interpersonal relationship on campus (effect = - 0.011) and academic self-efficacy (effect = - 0.019), and the chain mediating effect of interpersonal relationship on campus and academic self-efficacy (effect = - 0.003). Stronger parent-child relationship predicts lower levels of academic burnout. Moreover, parent-child relationship can indirectly affect academic burnout not only through the single mediating effect of interpersonal relationship on campus and academic self-efficacy but also through the chain mediating effect of interpersonal relationship on campus and academic self-efficacy.
