Emotional intelligence as a predictor of mental health in undergraduate students.
Article in BMC psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to analyze whether trait emotional intelligence statistically predicts mental health outcomes in university students.
methodSix hundred forty-seven undergraduate students from the Community of Madrid participated. The Trait Meta Mood Scale-24 (TMMS-24) was used to assess emotional intelligence, and the Global Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12) was used to assess mental health. Student's t-analysis and ANOVA were performed for the comparative study, as well as multiple regression for the predictive analysis of emotional intelligence on mental health.
resultsA multiple regression model was calculated to predict mental health in the total sample [F (4, 642) = 58.94, p ≤ .001] with an R
conclusionsThe dimensions that make up emotional intelligence (attention, clarity, and emotional repair) predict mental health in university students in the Community of Madrid.
