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

Moral intelligence is the ability to distinguish between right and wrong, to make ethical decisions, and to be guided by certain values in life. In view of cultural and social change and the ongoing crisis of values, moral intelligence is of particular importance today in various areas of human life and function. The purpose of this article is to introduce the topic of moral intelligence and its operationalization in order to construct the moral intelligence scale. The psychometric properties of the tool were also assessed. It was carried out in three stages. The first involved the creation of items based on the concept of moral intelligence. Next, exploratory factor analysis was conducted on a Polish sample of 433 people (218 women, 215 men; M = 27.23 years; SD = 4.66). In the third, the confirmatory factor analysis conducted on a Polish sample of 643 individuals (339 females, 304 males; M = 29.03 years; SD = 4.34) confirmed the five factors of the Moral Intelligence Scale. Moral intelligence has a specific structure. Analyses have shown that it is a complex construct consisting of five factors that have been recognized as: responsibility, honesty, forgiveness, conscience, and compassion.
