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

Parents influence their children's social development, including their susceptibility to peer pressure. Both parenting practices and peer pressure are associated with adolescents' basic needs for autonomy and relatedness, essential for healthy development. However, the mechanisms underlying these relationships require further exploration. Grounded in Self-Determination Theory, this study addresses the following questions: (1) How do different parenting practices (parental support, psychological control, and behavioral control) affect adolescents' autonomy and relatedness? (2) Do autonomy and relatedness mediate the relationship between parenting practices and susceptibility to peer pressure? (3) Does gender moderate the association between parenting practices and susceptibility to peer pressure? Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) was used to analyse data from 2156 Dutch adolescents (Mage = 14.67, SD = 1.33; 1129 girls). Results indicate that high psychological control-a parenting practice involving guilt induction and love withdrawal-is associated with higher susceptibility to peer pressure, while high parental support is associated with reduced susceptibility. Behavioral control showed no direct effect on peer pressure. Psychological control negatively impacted autonomy and relatedness, while behavioral control and support positively affected relatedness and negatively affected autonomy. Autonomy and relatedness mediated the relationship between psychological control and susceptibility to peer pressure, and between parental support and susceptibility to peer pressure. Gender moderated the relationship between psychological control and susceptibility to peer pressure, with boys showing a stronger association. These findings highlight the importance of supportive parenting in fostering adolescents' autonomy and relatedness, ultimately reducing their susceptibility to peer pressure. They offer valuable insights for developing effective parenting programs tailored to adolescents' needs, incorporating a gender-sensitive approach.
