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

Mental health is an increasing concern, particularly among the younger population. Given that university life is a critical stage in the personal and academic development of some young individuals, identifying the factors that contribute to their well-being is essential. This study focused on exploring the role of emotional intelligence and resilience in the perceived stress of a sample of 338 university students from the University of Alicante. To this end, a structural equation analysis was used to evaluate the direct and indirect effects of the variables included in the model. The instruments used were the Trait Meta-Mood Scale, the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, and the Perceived Stress Scale. Based on the dimensions of the cascading model of emotional intelligence, the results indicate that emotional attention had a direct and positive effect on stress, while both emotional clarity and emotional repair influenced resilience directly and positively. In turn, resilience had a direct and negative effect on stress, acting as a mediator between the dimensions of emotional intelligence and stress. The final proposed model explained 49.3% of the variance in stress. This study provides empirical evidence regarding how these variables interact and underscores the importance of emotional abilities in stress regulation in the university setting.
