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

Taiwan's high-tech industry is experiencing rapid labor restructuring driven by automation and technological advancement, resulting in increased job demands and workplace stress. In this context, identifying mechanisms that sustain employee performance has become a critical concern. Drawing on the concept of social capital and grounded in Conservation of Resources (COR) theory, this study investigates whether social capital indirectly enhances job performance through organizational citizenship behavior. In addition, psychological capital is introduced as a moderating variable to examine the boundary conditions of this mediation process. Data were collected from 327 employees working in Taiwan's high-tech sector and analyzed using PROCESS Model 14. The results indicate that social capital positively influences job performance only through the mediating effect of organizational citizenship behavior. Moreover, this indirect effect is strengthened when individuals possess higher levels of psychological capital. Based on these findings, the study concludes by discussing theoretical contributions and practical implications for organizations operating in high-pressure, innovation-driven environments.
