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

This multi-method and multi-rater study examined the association between personality and loneliness. Participants (n=297) completed baseline self-rated and partner-rated personality traits; baseline self-rated loneliness; self-rated momentary loneliness (6444 assessments) and partner-rated daily loneliness (2139 assessments). Baseline correlations indicated that higher self and partner-rated neuroticism and lower extraversion, conscientiousness, and agreeableness were related to higher loneliness. In multilevel modeling, self and partner-rated neuroticism and conscientiousness were generally associated with self-rated momentary loneliness and daily partner-rated loneliness, but extraversion and agreeableness had inconsistent associations. Similarly, interpersonal warmth and sociability facets were associated with dispositional loneliness but were mostly unrelated to momentary loneliness. Findings suggest that neuroticism and emotion-related facets are more relevant to momentary loneliness than sociability and other interpersonal traits.
