Attachment, Perceived Partner Phubbing, and Retaliation: A Daily Diary Study.
Article in Journal of personality, 2026. 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
objectiveWe conducted a diary study to investigate the role of adult attachment on responses to daily perceived partner phubbing in a sample of couple members (N = 196).
methodWe focused on personal and relational well-being as well as reactions to phubbing, retaliation reports, and motives as outcomes.
resultsResults showed that on days when participants perceived their partner as phubbing them more, participants higher in attachment anxiety reported higher depressed mood and lower self-esteem; however, their relationship satisfaction was not impacted. In response to partner phubbing, participants higher in attachment anxiety reported more resentment, curiosity, and retaliation in response to phubbing. When retaliating to phubbing, those higher in attachment anxiety did so to seek support and approval from others, whereas those higher in attachment avoidance did so to gain approval from others.
conclusionsOur findings contribute to the understanding of how adult attachment patterns influence people's responses to partners' phubbing and well-being.
