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

Introduction: Frustration is a complex negative emotion with multifaceted components that significantly influence cognitive and behavioral responses. While previous studies have explored frustration, identifying distinct groups of individuals prone to frustration has yielded inconsistent findings. This study employs a person-centered approach to identify clusters of drivers based on frustration triggers and emotional responses to frustrating events. Methods: A total of 2,219 drivers participated in an online survey assessing frustration experiences in various frustrating scenarios. Latent Profile Analysis (LPA) was conducted to identify subgroups based on frustration triggers and emotional responses. Predictor variables included Driving Behavior Dimensions (violations, errors, and lapses), user group categories (car-sharing, ownership, leasing), and demographic factors (age and gender). Results: LPA identified four distinct frustration profiles: Minimal, Low, Moderate, and Severe. These profiles were associated with different frustration triggers (i.e., goal blockage, limited control) and emotional responses (i.e., anger, stress, and irritation). The Severe profile, characterized by a high probability of individuals being highly prone to frustration, exhibited the highest frustration levels and was predominantly composed of older drivers (>45 years), particularly women, from car-sharing and leasing user groups. Emotional response patterns and the likelihood of frustration arousal are consistent across profiles, varying primarily in intensity. Discussion: These findings offer insights into frustration susceptibility and underscore the need for targeted interventions to enhance emotion regulation in driving contexts. Future research should explore personalized strategies to mitigate frustration based on individual and group characteristics.
