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

backgroundFlipped classroom (FC) is a novel teaching method. To assess its effectiveness in teaching physical education in schools, a systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted with the aim of exploring the Impact of FC method in PE on the intrinsic motivation, self-efficacy, and learning satisfaction.

methodsAs of February 2025, a comprehensive search was conducted in the Web of Science (WoS) and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases to identify studies pertaining to FC style PE instruction and its impact on students' intrinsic motivation, self-efficacy, and learning satisfaction.

resultsTotal 13 studies were included in this study. The results demonstrated that, compared to traditional teaching methods, the FC model significantly improved intrinsic motivation, self-efficacy, and learning satisfaction. These findings underscore the notable positive impact of the FC approach on multiple educational outcomes. Subgroup analyses revealed that the FC model significantly enhanced students' intrinsic motivation across different countries, various PE subjects, differing class sizes, and diverse student populations. In terms of learning satisfaction, the FC approach demonstrated positive effects in subgroups involving Chinese participants, PE subjects focused on dance, and varying class sizes.

conclusionIntegrating the FC model into school PE classes has been shown to enhance students' intrinsic motivation, self-efficacy, and learning satisfaction. However, further high-quality research is essential to solidify and extend these findings.
