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

This paper focuses on micro-level Chinese households and studies the impact of parental marriage age on the education outcomes of their children, utilizing data from the China Family Panel Studies (2020). Through OLS model regression, it is found that parents who get married later are better prepared to have children, marital stability is also stronger, and their children have a longer education period. But this positive effect will turn negative after the age of marriage exceeds 30. Further analysis reveals that parental age at marriage has a heterogeneous effect on their children's educational attainment, which means mothers have a more significant impact on their children's education outcomes than fathers.
