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

introductionThe College Academic Perfectionism Scale (CAPS) is a self-report 24-item questionnaire measuring perfectionism in academic and educational environments. The present study determined the psychometric properties of the CAPS among an Iranian sample.

methodsThe statistical sample consisted of students, 404 (115 females and 289 males) of whom were selected by nonrandomized convenience sampling to fill out the questionnaires.

resultComposite reliability and Cronbach alpha coefficient were used to examine the reliability and internal consistency of the CAPS, and the results revealed the appropriate internal consistency and composite reliability of the scale. Likewise, the face and content validities of the CAPS were evaluated and confirmed. Confirmatory factor analysis was also employed to determine and confirm construct and convergent validities. The analysis of the correlation showed that the CAPS positively and significantly correlated with self-efficacy, self-criticism, and perceived stress.

conclusionGenerally, the results displayed that this scale enjoyed desirable psychometric properties in an Iranian sample and could be applied to Iranian samples confidently.
