The Impact of Perceived Self-Efficacy on Healthcare Transition Outcomes: Perceptions From Parents and Young People.
Article in Child: care, health and development, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundAdolescent and young adults (AYAs) with a chronic health condition face multiple challenges as they transition from paediatric to adult healthcare. To facilitate engagement during healthcare transition, one supportive psychological skillset is health self-efficacy. Outcomes that indicate engagement during healthcare transition involve transition readiness, lower distress, quality of life and general adherence. Although researchers have examined the impact of youth self-efficacy on engagement during healthcare transition, studies are yet to examine the impact of parent-perceived self-efficacy during healthcare transition. The current study aimed to investigate how youth self-efficacy and parent-perceived self-efficacy impacted indicators of engagement during healthcare transition.
methodParticipants were 54 AYAs and 48 parents who were recruited from The Centre for Adolescent and Young Adult Health at Westmead Hospital. Participating AYAs ranged in age from 12 to 25 years old (M = 17.74, SD = 2.56, Mdn = 17.08). Adolescents completed scales examining health self-efficacy, distress, health-related quality of life and general adherence to treatment. Parents completed scales examining AYAs' health self-efficacy and transition readiness from paediatric to adult healthcare.
resultsUniquely, findings have demonstrated that parent-perceived self-efficacy holds most value in predicting transition readiness. Conversely, youth self-efficacy holds most value in predicting general adherence.
conclusionBoth perspectives hold great importance for different outcomes. To promote successful healthcare transition and general adherence, self-efficacy interventions that involve AYAs and parents would be beneficial.
