The Influence of Distributed Leadership on Chinese Teachers' Job Satisfaction: The Chain Mediation of Teacher Collaboration and Teacher Self-Efficacy.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The leadership structure within educational institutions has a significant bearing on teacher job satisfaction (TJS). This study employs data from the OECD's Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS 2018) specific to Shanghai to construct a structural equation model that investigates how distributed leadership (DL) impacts TJS in China. Findings reveal that DL has a markedly positive effect on the job satisfaction of teachers in China. Teacher self-efficacy (TSE) serves as an independent mediator in this relationship, while teacher collaboration (TC) does not mediate independently; nonetheless, both collaborate sequentially in a mediation pathway. These findings affirm the relevance of DL in the Chinese educational setting, offering empirical evidence to inform policymakers. Furthermore, it underscores that enhancing TC and TSE can lead to increased job satisfaction under DL. The results highlight the practical implications of this study for the advancement of educational governance and the optimization of school management models in China.
