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

Home management of the home and family, including household chores, childrearing, caregiving and shopping, can be a burden, especially when the person or a family member is ill or affected by psychological or social issues. We developed a subjective indicator of this burden, the self-report, five-item, five-point Likert scale "Perceived Home Management Hassles Scale". Here, we evaluated the psychometric validity of the scale, using an online questionnaire survey among members of the Japanese Association for Research in Family Nursing. Confirmatory factor analyses supported the unidimensional structure (CFI = 0.999, RMSEA = 0.028, SRMR = 0.007). Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's Omega was 0.92 and 0.93, respectively. Mean score was higher among participants with childrearing responsibilities than in those without (n = 198, mean = 10.3, SD = 5.24, vs. n = 312, mean = 6.4, SD = 4.59; p < 0.001), and among those with caregiving responsibilities than in those without (n = 81, mean = 9.6, SD = 5.11, vs. n = 829, mean = 7.6, SD = 5.21; p = 0.002). Score was independently associated with Kessler-6 score (B = 0.33, β = 0.331, p < 0.001) and mediated the negative effects of childrearing/caregiving. The Perceived Home Management Hassles Scale demonstrated sufficient structural validity, internal consistency, and construct validity, including known-groups and convergent validity. Test-retest reliability and generalizability to general populations awaits further research.
