Cluster analysis of caregiver and adolescent emotion regulation and its relation to sexual health and dating communication.

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
objectiveAdolescent emotion regulation (ER) has been positively linked to caregiver-adolescent sexual communication. With ER becoming increasingly conceptualized as an interpersonal process, it is likely that both adolescent and caregiver ER impact communication patterns to some extent; thus, each must be accounted for in scientific inquiry and intervention approaches. We aimed to identify distinct profiles of caregiver and adolescent ER and examine how each profile is differentially related to caregiver-adolescent communication about sexual health and relationships.
methodsParticipants included adolescent males (n = 117; Mage = 13.06; SD = 0.72) and their caregivers (Mage = 42.33; SD = 0.72) who were recruited as part of a dyadic, web-based dating violence prevention intervention trial for middle school boys.
resultsUsing a self-report measure, three clusters were identified: families with Moderate ER strategy use (by both parents and adolescents), families with Low ER strategy use (by both parents and adolescents), and families with Mixed ER strategy use (moderate adolescent but low caregiver ER strategy use). Caregivers in the Moderate ER strategy use cluster reported discussing the greatest total number of sexual health and relationship topics. Adolescents in the Mixed ER strategy use cluster indicated the greatest perceived caregiver openness during discussions.
conclusionsFindings suggest that adolescent ER may more strongly influence positive patterns of communication regarding sexual health and relationships than parent ER. Future research should compare the efficacy of adolescent sexual health and dating interventions with adolescents alone versus dyadic interventions to determine whether there is a clinically significant additive effect of including caregivers or if adolescent engagement alone may suffice.
