Dynamic Complexity of Positive and Negative Affect in NSSI - A Daily Diary Study.
Article in Clinical psychology in Europe, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is a major health problem. Functionally, it is related to affect instability and increased affective intensity. The role of negative emotions has already been extensively explored, only few studies have focused on positive emotions. The concept of dynamic complexity (DC) is particularly well suited to differentially analyze the dynamics of affect collected by ecological momentary assessment (EMA). This study examines DC of positive and negative emotions in individuals with and without NSSI history in an EMA setting. Method: Participants from a clinical NSSI group ( Results: Compared to controls, individuals with a history of NSSI showed significantly more positive affect and had significantly higher DC in affect in general. No significant difference for negative affect was found. Conclusion: Our results suggest that it is important to assess dynamic emotional patterns and to analyze in detail the role of positive and negative affect in individuals with NSSI in order to better understand the complex interplay between the different emotional states and to be able to use it for diagnostic purposes and clinical interventions.
