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

Many universities have implemented bystander training programs to prevent relationship violence and sexual assault. Such programs encourage students to engage in behaviors to prevent interpersonal violence (i.e., bystander behaviors) if they witness situations that seem likely to escalate to violence. Bystander behaviors, however, often result in consequences, both positive and negative, for those who engage in them. Measures of consequences of bystander behaviors are starting to appear in the literature, but there is limited psychometric information for these measures. The current study examined psychometric properties of the General Outcomes of Bystander Actions Scale (GOBAS) by (a) attempting to replicate the original two-factor structure of the scale and (b) evaluating its criterion validity by examining its relation to future bystander behaviors.
