Evaluation of the biopsychosocial model of health among emerging adults.

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
purposeUnited Nations SDG 3 highlights the need for healthy life and promotes mental well-being at all ages. Given the growing significance of mental health and its declining status among emerging adults, it is imperative to reevaluate the biopsychosocial (BPS) model.
methodsA cross-sectional research design was employed to analyse biological, social, and psychological components of health. The biological component was assessed through the Reaction Time test (Psychopy Version 2024.2.5). Resilience, personality, and overall mental health in the psychological domain were assessed through the Brief Resilience Scale (BRS), Behaviour Inhibition and Behaviour Activation System (BIS-BAS) Scale, and Mental Health Continuum (MHC) Scale, respectively. The social component was assessed through the Multidimensional Scale for Perceived Social Support (MSPSS). Through convenience sampling, 333 private university students (115 males and 218 females) with a mean age of (20.3 + 1.8) years were recruited for the study.
resultsThe results of this study indicated no associations between the biological and the psychological components, but the biological variable was associated with the family component of perceived social support (rs = - 0.155, p = 0.004). There were also associations between the psychological and social components of the BPS model (MSPSS with MHC (rs = 0.37, p < 0.001) and BRS (rs = 0.19, p < 0.001). Hierarchical multiple regression analysis showed that only BAS Drive and BAS Fun Seeking were predictors of Reaction Time (RT) (f
conclusionThe findings indicate the need to develop individualised interventions and healthcare plans that enhance wellness among emerging adults, thereby contributing to SDG 3: Good Health & Well-being.
