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

purposeThis study evaluated the effectiveness of an interactive video (IV) to improve knowledge, attitudes, and intent to hire people who are blind or have low vision (B/LV) and determined whether immediate improvements were retained 3 months later.

methodWe conducted two randomized controlled trials to evaluate the IV's effectiveness, one involving 157 management students, and the other including 63 adults involved in making hiring decisions for their organizations. In both studies, participants took a pretest consisting of six outcome measures, viewed the IV or a control video, and completed an immediate posttest. Study 1 participants also completed a 3-month follow-up.

resultsViewing the IV was associated with large improvements in knowledge about B/LV and explicit attitudes about employing people who are B/LV and medium increases in intent to hire. Changes in discomfort around people who are B/LV and implicit attitudes about their competence were mixed. Improvements exhibited immediately after viewing the IV were retained.

conclusionsResearch supports that improvements in these outcome measures may be associated with an increased likelihood of hiring an applicant who is B/LV. Organizations could adopt the video as a training for personnel who are involved in making hiring decisions to promote inclusive hiring. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2026 APA, all rights reserved).
