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

objectiveThe application of digital phenotyping in personality research leverages smartphone-generated data to quantify individual differences in personality constructs. It can be conceptualized as an extension of Experience Sampling Methods (ESMs), as it allows for the continuous, in situ collection of behavioral and contextual data. This study expands beyond the FFM/Big5 model to include 59 traits/types from 16 personality constructs, including temperament and personal value theories.

methodDigital footprints were collected from 104 participants' smartphones over 7-10 days. Both hypothesis-testing (deductive) and machine learning (inductive) methods were applied to analyze the data.

resultsFour personality constructs of 16 (25%) were successfully predicted (r 0.034-0.53): Adult Attachment, FFM/Big5, Distress Tolerance, and Creativity, given an adopted r ≥ 0.34 threshold for successful predictions. Overall, a total of 22 out of 59 individual traits and types of the 16 constructs were successfully predicted (37.29%). Gradient Boosted Trees emerged as the most effective machine learning predictive model (compared with Decision Tree, Random Forest, and Support Vector Machine), particularly when analyzing communication-related information features.

conclusionsThis study demonstrates the capacity of Digital Phenotyping of smartphone data to broaden the possibilities of remote personality psychology research and highlights its potential applicability in People Analytics research and additional cross-disciplinaryscholarly fields.
