Did Your Mum Not Hug You Enough? The Effects of Attachment Experience and Callous-Unemotional Traits on Catcalling Behavior in Men.
Article in Violence against women, 2026. 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
Catcalling is a type of street harassment which occurs almost daily for most women since their teenage years. The present study aimed to investigate the developmental mechanisms of street harassment in perpetrators. We tested a mediation model in which negative parental attachment experiences are linked to the manifestation of callous-unemotional (CU) Traits which may relate to catcalling. Our model revealed that positive maternal attachment experience is negatively associated with the manifestation of CU Traits, that are further associated with catcalling. Negative paternal attachment experience was directly associated with catcalling. This effect, however, was not modulated via CU Traits. Our findings suggest an inclined position of the maternal relationship quality in the developmental aspects of CU Traits and, in further consequence, street harassment.
