A study of the effects of different group involvement on children's sport behavioral choices: a group preference-based perspective.

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
Introduction: In order to investigate the characteristics of children's sport behavioral choices in different group-involvement contexts and the role of group favoritism in this relationship. Methods: 280 children aged 3-8 years were recruited for a psycho-experimental study in two different experimental contexts. Results and discussion: The results found that (1) in the in-group and out-group involvement situations, the rate of physical activity selection was significantly higher in the in-group than in the out-group, and there was a significant difference, indicating that there was an in-group preference in the selection of physical activities by children aged 3 to 8 years old. (2) There was a significant age difference in the low favorite physical activity choice in the parent-intimate peer involvement context. Negative rank was lower than positive rank in physical activity choice among 3- to 4- and 5- to 6-years-olds, suggesting the presence of parental attachment behaviors among 3- to 4- and 5- to 6-years-olds. In summary, it can be seen that children aged 3-8 years show a clear phenomenon of in-group favoritism in their choice of physical activity, which may be related to children's early social cognitive development and attachment behavior.
