Multigroup Comparisons with Configural Frequency Analysis.
Article in Journal for person-oriented research, 2025. 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
Lienert's (1973) original approach to comparing groups with Configural Frequency Analysis (CFA) cannot straightforwardly be generalized to the comparison of multiple groups. The present article proposes a new base model for group comparison with CFA. This model allows researchers to compare multiple groups, to evaluate overall model fit, to take covariates into account, and to conduct exploratory and confirmatory analyses. In confirmatory group comparisons, base models need to be specified in which particular configurations are blanked out, and other configurations are explicitly set equal. Reference is made to existing base models, e.g., the configural model of axial symmetry. Data examples are provided in which individuals are compared. Extensions of the new models are discussed.
