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

Introduction: Children's perceived parental educational aspirations play an important role in their development. However, few studies have examined the relationships between children's perceived parental educational aspirations and their own educational aspirations, mathematics achievement, and social-emotional competence (SEC), as well as the mediating role of mathematics self-beliefs in these relationships. This study investigated that how children's perceived parental educational aspirations were transmitted into their subsequent educational aspirations, mathematics achievement, and SEC through mathematics self-beliefs. Method: Participants were 3,995 fourth-grade students in China (47.06% girls; Results: Results indicated that perceived parental educational aspirations positively predicted mathematics self-beliefs (β = 0.13, Discussion: These findings highlight the benefits of children's perceived parental educational aspirations for their development and the central role of mathematics self-beliefs. They suggest that when parents demonstrate positive educational expectations, children are more likely to develop positive self-beliefs, which in turn foster higher aspirations, stronger academic performance, and enhanced SEC.
