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

In the context of the digital era, many enterprises have invested in the wave of digital transformation. Electronic performance monitoring (EPM), as an effective digital management tool for enterprise digital transformation, profoundly influences the innovative behavior of employees while improving enterprise management efficiency. Nowadays, an increasing number of organizations are actively adopting employee performance management systems to motivate employees and achieve organizational performance goals, fostering high-quality development. However, the influencing mechanism on how electronic performance monitoring affects organizational employee innovation is unclear. Based on the social exchange theory, this study conducted empirical analyses on 265 questionnaire surveys collected online from employees of Chinese enterprises in the financial, Internet, and manufacturing industries using SPSS 27.0 and MPLUS 8.3 software. Hierarchical regression analysis and the Bootstrap method were employed to verify the mechanisms through which developmental electronic performance monitoring influences employee innovative behavior. The study finds that: developmental electronic performance monitoring positively impacts employee innovative behavior. Leader-member exchange partially mediates the relationship between developmental electronic performance monitoring and employee innovative behavior. Power distance positively moderates the relationship between leader-member exchange and employee innovative behavior. The findings of this study expand the existing research on the influence mechanism of developmental electronic performance monitoring on employee innovative behavior and offer practical implications for enterprises aiming to effectively utilize electronic performance monitoring to foster employee innovation.
