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

Introduction: In today's highly competitive landscape, higher education institutions must adopt innovative practices to thrive and maintain academic excellence. The engagement of academic staff is essential for driving such innovation. While previous studies have examined the influence of personal and workplace factors separately, this study investigates the roles of employee resilience, emotional intelligence, and job autonomy-alongside the mediating effect of employee creativity-on employee innovation in higher education, drawing on the Dynamic Componential Model of Creativity and Innovation. Methods: A quantitative research design was used, surveying 307 academic staff members from federal and state universities in South-Western Nigeria. The study employed a structural equation modeling approach via SmartPLS4 to test the hypothesized relationships among employee resilience, emotional intelligence, job autonomy, creativity, and innovation. Results: The findings confirm that employee resilience, emotional intelligence, and job autonomy significantly contribute to employee innovation. Additionally, mediation analysis reveals that both resilience and job autonomy foster innovation indirectly through employee creativity, whereas emotional intelligence does not exert a significant indirect effect. Discussion: These results underscore the importance of cultivating resilience, autonomy, emotional intelligence, and creativity among academic staff as a strategic means to promote innovation within universities. They demonstrate that interventions emphasizing both personal growth and supportive work environments can meaningfully advance innovative practices and enhance academic excellence.
