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

backgroundIn their daily work life, teachers experience various situations in which they need to regulate their emotions. Possible factors that influence the use of different emotion regulation strategies include the emotions and context experienced. Previous research mainly investigated teachers' emotion regulation at a single strategy level without considering multiple strategies use, emotions, situational aspects and well-being.

aimsThis study aimed to explore teachers' emotion regulation in their daily work life. Furthermore, we examined their emotions, specific situations and well-being linked to regulation behaviour. SAMPLE: In total, 165 teachers (mean age 43.31 years; 83.6% female) participated in a diary study for two weeks.

methodsWe assessed eight emotion regulation strategies, joy and anger, the valence and context of the situation and emotional exhaustion. The data were analysed using multilevel latent profile analyses.

resultsWe found different combinations of emotion regulation strategy use at the situational level (Level 1) and the person-level (Level 2). At the person-level, only a few teachers (17.4%) were able to flexibly apply different strategies in different situations, while most teachers regulated their emotions predominantly with a specific set of strategies. Experiencing joy, as well as the valence and the context of the situation, mattered for emotion regulation at the situational level. Emotional exhaustion at the person-level was not linked to profile probability.

conclusionThe findings highlight the complexity of teachers' emotion regulation, revealing diverse regulation patterns and profiles influenced by emotions and situational factors, while underscoring the limited flexibility in strategy use among most teachers.
