Perceived Accessibility of Living Environment and Services Questionnaire: Validity and Reliability.
Article in OTJR : occupation, participation and health, 2026. 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
Assessing living-environment accessibility is relevant for older adults and others with disabilities because they influence participation in daily activities and quality of life (QoL). The objective of this study is to test the reliability and validity of the Perceived Accessibility of Living Environment and Services questionnaire (PALES). Feedback from experts on older adults and accessibility and a sample of 495 older adults (≥60 years) with/without disabilities was used to assess validity/reliability measures. Construct validity was tested via between-group (with/without disabilities) differences and correlations between PALES responses and World Health Organization's QoL domains, criterion validity via correlations between participant and researcher responses, and test-retest reliability. Results showed content validity, test-retest reliability (
