The decision to purchase genome edited food products by Iranian consumers: theory of planned behavior as a social intervention tool.
Article in Frontiers in genome editing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
The main aim of present study was to analyze the consumers' preferences about genome/gene-edited food products in Iran. For this purpose, an extended version of the theory of planned behavior was used as a social intervention tool. The theory of planned behavior was firstly extended using the introduction and new variable of trust in gene-edited products and perceived benefits of gene-edited food products, but in the next step, it was also analyzed statistically. To achieve the main objective of the research, a representative sample was selected from the population of purchasers of gene-edited products, and data were collected using a cross-sectional survey. The validity and reliability of the data collection tool was evaluated and confirmed using different quantitative and qualitative methods in the pilot stages and after the main survey. The results of structural equation modeling showed that the attitude towards gene-edited food products, perceived behavioral control, and the subjective norms of gene-edited products had positive and significant effects on the intention to purchase these products. The results of the study indicated that two newly introduced variables to the theory of planned behavior, namely, trust in gene-edited products and the perceived benefits of gene-edited products also had positive and significant effects on the intention to purchase these products. Based on the results, the framework employed and extended in this study can provide the basis for effective interventions to improve consumers' preference for gene-edited food products. Also, some practical suggestions were provided for policymakers, managers, and producers of these products.
