The relationship between parent-child attachment and fertility intention: the mediating role of family resilience and the moderating role of gender moderating.

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
Objective: The study aims to explore how parent-child attachment relates to college students fertility intention, mediated by family resilience and moderated by gender . Methods: A study surveyed 2186 college students using various scales to assess parent-child attachment, family resilience, fertility intention. Data analysis included descriptive stats, partial correlations, mediation and moderation effects. Results: (1) Parent-child attachment (including its sub-dimensions: father attachment and mother attachment), family resilience (including its sub-dimensions: family beliefs and family strength), and fertility intention show significant positive correlations; (2) Total scores of parent- child attachment and family resilience positively predict fertility intention- Specifically, father attachment (rather than mother attachment) and family beliefs (rather than family strength) positively predict fertility intention; (3) After controlling for variables such as family economic status, family beliefs partially mediate the relationship between father attachment and future fertility intention; (4) Both segments of the mediating pathway are significantly moderated by gender- Male's father attachment has a stronger promoting effect on family beliefs than female's, male's family beliefs directly drive fertility intention, while female's family beliefs do not directly influence fertility intention. Conclusion: This study clarified the core role path of 'father attachment → family beliefs → fertility intentions,' and found that men are more likely to form family beliefs through father attachment, which can directly drive their fertility intentions, while women's fertility intentions need to be improved by alleviating actual fertility costs. This result not only provides new evidence for the theoretical mechanism of ' parent-child relationships affecting fertility intentions,' but also offers practical basis for formulating fertility intention enhancement strategies differentiated by gender and dimension.
