1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

This research investigates the impact of sustainable lighting solutions on the psychological performance of guests in beach resorts, with a focus on the coastal region of Karnataka, India. Psychological performance is operationally defined as a combination of four measurable dimensions: mood enhancement, stress reduction, relaxation, and sleep quality, assessed using guest self-report surveys on a Likert scale. As the hospitality industry faces increasing pressure to implement sustainable practices without compromising guest comfort, this study explores whether and how lighting design contributes to guest well-being. A mixed-methods approach was adopted, combining quantitative surveys with qualitative insights. The study surveyed 100 participants across four beach resorts using structured questionnaires to examine guest preferences, satisfaction levels, and awareness of sustainable lighting practices. Findings reveal a strong guest preference for a balanced blend of natural and artificial lighting, with many recognizing the role of sustainable lighting in enhancing relaxation and reducing stress. Statistical analysis demonstrated a positive correlation between sustainable lighting features and improved guest psychological outcomes. The results offer valuable implications for resort designers and operators striving to align luxury hospitality with environmental responsibility. Integrating sustainable lighting not only enhances guest experience but also supports broader sustainability goals-ultimately promoting a more eco-conscious tourism model.
