Virtue Signaling: Problematizing Creative Labor Within Knowledge Socialism.
Article in Postdigital science and education, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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 article argues that current scholarship inappropriately utilizes 'virtue signaling' to elicit a subjectivist form of de-valorized creative labor within knowledge socialism as a philosophy of praxis. Moreover, it argues that within institutionalized higher education (HE) contexts, knowledge socialism should be reoriented toward the promotion of prosocial-entrepreneurial 'transitional ecosystems' of commons-based peer production (CBPP). This sociomaterialist repositioning will outline a path forward for knowledge socialism which better understands, elicits, and valorizes the inherently prosocial-entrepreneurial creative labor contributions of precariously positioned academics within contemporary HE. In order to accomplish this aim, this article first underlines several fundamental concepts (commons-based peer production, collective intelligence, creative labor) before moving on to a more pointed philosophical discussion and critique of these concepts as underlying assumptions within knowledge socialism. Lastly, this article provides an operaismo-based reflexive inquiry into the interplay between the theory of knowledge socialism as experienced in practice within the China HE context, contributing to the development of non-exploitative knowledge cultures within CBPP creative labor processes.
