The Effect of Exercise Atmosphere on College Students' Physical Exercise-A Moderated Chain Mediation Model.
Article in Behavioral sciences (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
To explore the influence of exercise atmosphere on college students' physical exercise and its mechanism of action, the Exercise Atmosphere Scale, Enjoyment Scale, Exercise Self-efficacy Scale, Social Physique Anxiety Scale, and Physical Exercise Rating Scale were used to investigate 1265 college students. The results showed that: (1) exercise atmosphere directly impacted physical exercise and indirectly influenced physical exercise through three mediating pathways (e.g., the mediating role of enjoyment, the mediating role of exercise self-efficacy, and the chain mediating role of enjoyment and exercise self-efficacy); (2) social physique anxiety negatively moderated the influence of exercise atmosphere on enjoyment and exercise self-efficacy, respectively, and negatively moderated three mediating pathways of exercise atmosphere influencing physical exercise through enjoyment and exercise self-efficacy. The results are helpful in enriching the research on exercise atmosphere and college students' physical exercise and provide useful insights for schools and related organizations to strengthen college students' physical exercise.
