Families being supportive together: A multimethod and multi-informant intensive longitudinal study of family protective mechanisms for adolescent depression.
Article in Psychological assessment, 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
To advance the design and use of intensive longitudinal methods in investigations of adolescent depression, we conducted a multimethod and multi-informant study of daily parent-youth interactions, specifically, supportive communication, consisting of (a) naturalistic video observations of parent-youth interactions; (b) passive collection of Bluetooth Low Energy signals to approximate parent-youth proximity; and (c) scheduled, proximity-contingent and self-initiated ecological momentary assessments (EMA). We examined whether these novel and complementary approaches enhanced the assessment of parent-youth interactions, a key source of risk and protection for youth mental health. Specifically, we report participant compliance on the video recording procedures and describe preliminary results from our observational coding of supportive communication. We also report compliance rates on EMAs and examine the frequencies of parent-youth interactions per self-report and Bluetooth Low Energy signals. Participants in the 2-week-long protocol were 12- to 15-year-old adolescents (N = 138; 63.8% female, 42% Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression ≥ 16) and their parents (95.7% biological mothers, 25% Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression ≥ 16). Dyads completed mean 122.6 min (SD = 85.6) of video recordings. In 387 min of recordings from three pilot families, we identified 52 supportive communication episodes. The average parent and youth were compliant with EMA procedures, completing the recommended minimum of 40 cumulative surveys each. Parents and youth reported that they interacted with the other member in mean 56%-83% of the EMAs. The study demonstrates innovative ways to leverage technology to conduct multimethod and multi-informant intensive longitudinal assessments of interpersonal interactions, a key source of risk and protection for adolescent mental health.
