Emotional Sensitivity and Work Performance in Lima Firefighters.
Article in Brain and behavior, 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
purposeThe study aimed to analyze the relationship between emotional sensitivity and work performance in firefighters from Metropolitan Lima, considering potential differences by sex.
methodA cross-sectional, predictive, and non-experimental design was applied with a sample of 366 firefighters. Participants completed the Emotional Sensitivity Scale and the Individual Work Performance Scale. Data analysis included Spearman's correlation and Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM).
findingsResults revealed a weak but statistically significant negative correlation between emotional sensitivity and work performance (ρ = -0.19; p = 0.001), with Positive Emotional Sensitivity showing the strongest association (ρ = -0.22; p < 0.001). Among males, Positive Emotional Sensitivity negatively predicted Work Performance in the Context (β = -0.235; f
conclusionThe findings indicate that emotional sensitivity, particularly its positive and negative egocentric forms, may adversely affect work performance in firefighters. These results underscore the importance of developing differentiated emotional regulation and stress management interventions tailored by sex to support occupational performance in high-demand professions.
