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
To investigate the relationship between psychological richness and innovative behavior among Chinese college students, as well as the roles of cognitive flexibility and creative self-efficacy in this relationship, this study employed the Psychologically Rich Life Questionnaire, Cognitive Flexibility Scale, Creative Self-Efficacy Scale, and Innovative Behavior Scale to survey 669 Chinese college students. The results show that: (1) Psychological richness positively predicts innovative behavior; (2) Cognitive flexibility and creative self-efficacy, respectively, play a partial mediating role between psychological richness and innovative behavior; (3) Cognitive flexibility and creative self-efficacy play a chain mediating role between psychological richness and innovative behavior. The findings enrich the research results in the field of innovative behavior among Chinese college students and provide enlightenment for the cultivation of innovative talents in Chinese higher education.
