Article in Behavioral sciences (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Based on the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model, previous research has shown that burnout results from excessive demands combined with insufficient resources. This study evaluated the relationship between academic burnout and parent-child discrepancies in educational expectations, with the mediating role of academic stress and the moderating role of grit. A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 531 middle school students (Mage = 14.77, SD = 0.63; 47.08% female) in Zhengzhou, China, using self-report measures. The results showed that the expectation discrepancies were positively related to burnout, and academic stress partially mediated this association. In addition, grit moderated the effect of academic stress on burnout, indicating that grit could serve as a protective factor against academic burnout. These findings provide a better understanding of how expectation misalignment contributes to student burnout and highlight the protective role of grit. Suggestions for reducing academic stress and burnout among adolescents are discussed.
