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

Promoting teachers' deep, sustainable well-being is vital for educational development, but the key emotional resources involved are still not well understood. Drawing on the broaden-and-build theory of positive emotions, this study is the first to model how trait awe influences occupational well-being among primary and secondary school teachers. We conducted a cross-sectional survey with 1,037 teachers in China and used structural equation modeling for data analysis. Results showed that trait awe enhanced teachers' well-being both directly and indirectly. The indirect effect was mediated by professional identity and work engagement, both independently and sequentially. These findings provide the first empirical evidence that cultivating trait awe can be a powerful lever for supporting teachers' well-being and driving educational progress.
