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

With the development of the digital economy and digital technology, innovation-driven growth has become the key to the digital transformation of various organizations. Employee behavior and digital leadership affect the innovative performance of a company significantly. Using the proactive motivation model, this study constructed a moderated mediation model with job crafting as the mediating variable and person-job fit as the moderating variable. Through statistical analysis of 306 valid questionnaires answered by employees in manufacturing firms, this study determined how digital leadership affects innovative performance by promoting employees to carry out job crafting. The study conducted structure equation modeling to examine the hypotheses. The findings indicate the following: (1) Digital leadership has a positive effect on employee innovative performance. (2) Two of the three job crafting strategies (task crafting and cognitive crafting) mediate the relationship between digital leadership and employee innovation performance. (3) Person-job fit positively moderates the relationship between cognitive crafting and employee innovation performance. (4) Person-job fit positively moderates the indirect effect of digital leadership on employee innovation performance through cognitive crafting.
