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

Ecological momentary assessment (EMA) is a widely used methodology in psychological sciences; however, more broadly, environmental scientists have yet to fully capitalize on the benefits this method offers for gaining a critical understanding of subjective and behavioral responses to environmental factors. EMA enables the collection of experiences and actions occurring in one's natural environment as they unfold over time, allowing researchers to gain contextually informed, dynamic, and longitudinal insights. EMA can provide an accurate understanding of experiences and behaviors relevant to environmental science. To share this perspective, first, we describe current limitations in environmental research that could be addressed through the integration of EMA. Second, we discuss several benefits of adopting EMA in environmental sciences. Finally, we highlight the challenges and considerations involved in integrating EMA. The overarching implication of this work is to foster the interdisciplinary potential and promise of EMA methodology in advancing environmental science research.
