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

With the rapid development of e-commerce, packaging waste has surged, making green express packaging (GEP) a key component of sustainable logistics promotion. This study investigates the influence of product types (search goods vs. experienced goods), price sensitivity, and environmental awareness on consumers' willingness to pay for GEP. Data were collected through a combination of questionnaire surveys and eye-tracking experiments, and analyzed by SPSS 27.0. The results show that consumers with higher environmental awareness demonstrate a greater willingness to pay for GEP premiums, particularly when purchasing experienced products. However, price plays a significant restrictive role in the choice of green express. Eye-tracking data reveal that green express option attracts more visual attention than traditional one. Although higher premiums reduce willingness to pay, they do not diminish visual attention. E-commerce platforms and express delivery companies should consider product type, consumers' environmental awareness, and price sensitivity when formulating pricing strategies for green packaging to optimize consumers' willingness to pay.
