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 study indicates that there is still a limited number of studies that examined the nexus among participative leadership (PL), follower's psychological safety (FPS), followers' radical creativity (FRC), and collaborative relationship (CR) in the manufacturing sector of emerging economies. This paper emphasizes the importance of FPS and business collaboration to promote FRC and sheds new light on manufacturing stakeholders' involvement. That is why this research aims to investigate the relationship between PL and FRC, including the mediating effect of FPS. Additionally, CR functioned as a moderator in the connection between FPS and FRC. This study applies the social information processing (SIP) theory as the theoretical background by bringing the dynamics between leaders and followers to the current scholarly discourse. A quantitative survey was conducted through a structured questionnaire from the samples, including 82 leaders and 240 followers from 178 manufacturing companies from all parts of Bangladesh. The researchers in this study employed SPSS for the descriptive statistics and PLS-SEM to evaluate the anticipated connections. Moreover, the quantitative results showed that PL has a positive and substantial relationship with both FPS and FRC (β = 0.25, t-statistics = 5.67, P < 0.001). Additionally, FPS has a mediation effect on the link between PL and FRC (β=-0.12, t-statistics = 22.59, P < 0.001) On the other hand, it has been found that the collaborative relationship's moderating influence is insignificant (β = 0.29, T-values = 0.66, SE = 0.0000031). This study clarifies how PL and FPS develop the FRC in Bangladeshi industrial firms. This study contributes to the literature by highlighting how organizations can promote FRC among their followers, foster PS through CR, and motivate individuals to actively participate in FRC endeavors to boost organizational productivity and effectiveness.
