Event perception and event memory in real-world experience.
Article in Nature reviews psychology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
People remember events as a series of interconnected actions organized in time. The ability to perceive, represent and remember events is essential to understanding the world, adapting to changing circumstances and surviving. Extensive research has been conducted to understand memory representations of simple, static 'events' that often lack real-world contextual meaning. Although this work lays the foundation of current theories of cognition, it is disconnected from how memory functions in the real world. In this Review, we discuss how events are perceived from a continuous stream of experience, and how perceived events organize memory for real-world experiences. Further, we discuss how cognitive ageing, mental health conditions and neurodegenerative diseases impact event memory. We provide a cohesive overview of event memory for naturalistic stimuli and suggest future directions for the field.
