Measuring self-efficacy in patient-centeredness of physicians in oncology - translation, adaptation and evaluation of psychometric properties of the SEPCQ-27 German version (SEPCQ-24-GER).
Article in Annals of medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
introductionProviders' self-efficacy in patient-centeredness, defined as their confidence in their ability to communicate in a patient-centered manner, is linked to their patient-centered attitudes and behaviors. The SEPCQ-27 is a validated instrument to measure medical students' and physicians' self-efficacy in patient-centered communication. The aim of this study was to produce a German adaptation of the SEPCQ-27 and evaluate its psychometric properties in a sample of physicians in oncology. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe SEPCQ-27 was professionally translated and adapted into German. Descriptive analyses, exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, and internal consistency, convergent, discriminant and construct validity were conducted using data from a sample of
resultsExploratory factor analysis led to a modified three-dimensional German version with 24 items (SEPCQ-24-GER), which showed acceptable fit in confirmatory factor analysis ( DISCUSSION: The SEPCQ-24-GER demonstrated satisfactory psychometric properties. Future research should focus on further measures of reliability, sensitivity to change and validation within different samples.
