Formation mechanisms of primary school teachers' verbal immediacy behaviors in smart classroom environments.
Article in BMC psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundTeachers' verbal immediacy behaviors play a important role in enhancing student engagement, motivation, and emotional security. However, as the role of smart classrooms in education becomes increasingly prominent, research on the formation mechanisms of teachers' verbal immediacy behaviors in smart classroom environments remains relatively limited. Especially, at the primary grades, research on teachers' verbal immediacy behaviors has not yet garnered sufficient attention.
methodsThis study integrates the theory of planned behavior (TPB) with the norm activation model (NAM) to propose a theoretical model for teachers' verbal immediacy behaviors in smart classroom environments. Using purposive sampling based on specific criteria, 855 Chinese primary school teachers with extensive experience in smart classroom instruction were selected as participants. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire survey and analyzed employing structural equation modeling (SEM) to test the hypotheses empirically.
resultsThis study finds that teachers' verbal immediacy behavioral attitude, perceived behavior control (PBC), personal norms (PC) and subjective norms (SN) have significant positive effects on teachers' verbal immediacy behavioral intention. Awareness of consequences (AC) had significant positive effects on ascription of responsibility (AR), teachers' verbal immediacy behavioral attitude. In addition, Smart classroom environments have a moderating effect on the relationship between the teachers' verbal immediacy intention and their verbal immediacy behaviors.
conclusionThis study integrates the TPB and the NAM to explore the formation mechanisms of teachers' verbal immediacy behaviors in smart classroom environments, revealing the positive influence of smart classroom environments on these behaviors. IMPLICATIONS: The findings provide a theoretical foundation for understanding primary school teachers' verbal behaviors in smart classrooms and offer valuable insights for optimizing the design of smart classrooms and enhancing teaching effectiveness in educational practice.
