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
backgroundThis study investigates the relationship between psychological capital and subjective academic achievement among middle school students. It further explores the chain mediating role of adolescent internalizing problems and life attitude in this relationship.
methodsA cross-sectional survey, conducted in 2024, examined the relationships among psychological capital, adolescent internalizing problems, life attitude, and subjective academic achievement in a convenience sample of 1,019 middle school students from Chengdu, China. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation analyses, and a chain mediation model.
resultsPsychological capital significantly predicted subjective academic achievement, in which adolescent internalizing problems and life attitude served as mediators. Specifically, higher psychological capital was associated with fewer adolescent internalizing problems, more positive life attitude, and, ultimately, improved subjective academic achievement.
conclusionThese findings offer novel theoretical insights, emphasizing the pivotal role of psychological capital and positive life attitude in educational interventions aimed at fostering student academic achievement.
