Personality and Affect Characteristics Associated With Compensation in Older Adults.
Article in Sage open aging. 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
Compensation (e.g., alarm setting) has the potential to improve or maintain everyday functioning and delay conversion to dementia. Various psychological characteristics may impact compensation and therefore could inform intervention development and response to intervention. This study aimed to evaluate whether personality and affective characteristics are associated with compensation after accounting for cognition in older adults without dementia. Measures of compensation (both self-report and informant-report), cognition, personality (neuroticism, openness, extraversion, conscientiousness and agreeableness), grit, self-efficacy, positive affect, and two types of negative affect (sadness, anger) were administered to a sample of 126 older adults (mean age = 76.6; mean education = 15.5 years; 61% female; 45% non-White). In analyses using the entire sample, higher ratings of anger were associated with self-reported compensation. In follow-up analyses stratified by ethnoracial group, neuroticism was a predictor of self-reported compensation in non-Hispanic White participants and openness was a predictor of informant-reported compensation in non-White participants. Our findings suggest that anger may facilitate activation to compensate for real or perceived cognitive change. Additionally, personality characteristics associated with compensation may vary across diverse ethnoracial groups and reporting source.
