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

backgroundThe proliferation of mobile internet requires children's educational software to be evaluated rigorously and implemented effectively to ensure quality and sustainable development. Understanding the determinants of parents' decisions to sustain the use of such tools is critical with respect to efforts to optimize software design, develop frameworks for relevant policies, and improve digital education strategies. RESEARCH

methodsA theoretical model that integrates the expectation confirmation model (ECM) with the technology acceptance model (TAM) was developed to predict parents' continuance intentions. Data collected from 276 Chinese parents were analysed via structural equation modelling (SEM) with the goal of validating the proposed hypotheses.

findingsPerceived playability, usefulness, social influence, and satisfaction significantly predict continuance intention. Expectation confirmation positively influences playability, ease of use, and satisfaction while reducing perceived risk, although it does not affect continuance decisions directly.

conclusionChinese parents prioritize educational efficacy and interactivity in terms of the apps used by their children; thus, developers should establish a balance between pedagogical value and engagement. Social influence serves as a pivotal driver of adoption, thus highlighting the need for reliable information dissemination. Although perceived risk has only a minimal impact in this context, proactive measures to safeguard content quality and privacy remain imperative.
