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

Purpose: Although authentic leadership is known to improve caregivers' functioning, health, and quality of care, information is lacking about whether the authentic leadership subdimensions may be distinguished from an overarching authentic leadership global construct, and how these global and specific factors can combine within various profiles to explain outcomes over time. Relying on an integration of person- and variable-centered perspectives, this study aims to provide a deeper understanding of the dimensionality of the authentic leadership construct. Specifically, it aims to examine the profiles taken by authentic leadership dimensions, document their stability over time, and explore the associations between these profiles and outcomes (need satisfaction, anhedonia, and safety of care). Methods: A questionnaire was completed twice over a one-year period by 750 healthcare professionals. Latent transition analysis was the primary method of analysis. Results: Our results showed that employees' perceptions of authentic leadership behaviors reflected an overarching construct simultaneously coexisting with four specific dimensions (self-awareness, internalized moral perspective, relational transparency, and balanced processing). We identified four profiles highly stable over time: Conclusion: In addition to confirming that authentic leadership may be studied as a global construct, this study highlights the importance of considering the combinations of global and specific factors in explaining variations in caregivers' need satisfaction, anhedonia, and quality of care over a one year-period. Our findings suggest that managers should strive to implement a complete array of authentic leadership behaviors at a balanced level to ensure positive outcomes.
