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

The well-known Big Five personalities represent five personality characteristics including conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, neuroticism, and openness. Previous literature confirmed that academic performance is associated with conscientiousness personality but there were some uncertainties in other personalities across study populations. The questionnaire-based study was conducted among Grade-12 students at an international high school in Thailand. The data on the Big Five Inventory (BFI) personality assessment, and other baseline characteristics were collected via online or paper questionnaires. One-hundred and thirty-three respondents were female with a median GPA of 3.61. There were 102 respondents with a GPA ≥ 3.61 in the academic achievement (AA)-group and 101 respondents with a GPA < 3.61 in the academic non-achievement (AN)-group. The AA-group had a significantly higher score in the conscientiousness domain while the score in the other four domains was comparable between both groups. Multivariate analysis identified the Conscientiousness personality domain and the female gender as the positively associated factors for academic achievement. Furthermore, a higher BMI and having extensive physical activities were identified as the negatively associated factors for academic achievement. Our study confirmed the universal association between conscientiousness personality and academic achievement among international students in Thailand. The study results would be helpful for policymaker to improve the educational program.
