Assessing Work Addiction: Validity of the Italian Version of the Work Addiction Risk Test.
Article in La Medicina del lavoro, 2025. 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
backgroundWork addiction is a contemporary addiction affecting 8.3% to 22% of individuals in Europe, leading to detrimental effects on relationships, work-family balance, and overall well-being. Given its prevalence and impact, standardized assessment tools are crucial for distinguishing between work addiction and healthy work engagement.
methodsThis study evaluated the psychometric properties of the Italian version of the Work Addiction Risk Test (WART). A convenience sample of 700 workers from Northeastern and Southern Italy completed the Italian version of the WART along with other well-being at work and personality measures.
resultsExploratory factor analysis revealed a five-factor structure of the WART, partially overlapping with the original version. Despite some weaknesses in the factor structure, the WART demonstrated satisfactory psychometric properties, including internal consistency and associations with organizational and personality correlates of work addiction.
conclusionsThe Italian version of the WART is a reliable tool for assessing work addiction risk among Italian workers. This tool can aid in identifying individuals at risk and facilitating early intervention and support. Future research should focus on further validating the factor structure and exploring the utility of the WART indifferent cultural and occupational contexts.
