Wellbeing skills strengthening as a model for healthy adolescent digital technology use.
Review in Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Digital technologies (DTs) have become ubiquitous. Adolescents are avid users of DTs. As access to and use of DTs has increased among adolescents, daily life and adolescent social interaction patterns have shifted in profound ways. Although the causal relationship between DT use and adolescent wellbeing is not clear, it is clear that the economy driving DT innovation is not designed to promote adolescent wellbeing. Yet, DTs possess characteristics that make them promising avenues for wellbeing promotion because of their accessibility, ability to scale up, and the potential for personalization. In this essay, we propose that strengthening adolescent wellbeing skills through DT interventions may provide the necessary conditions for adaptive adolescent DT use at a public health scale, leading to improved adolescent wellbeing.
