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: The ability to solve complex mathematical problems has become a key indicator of students' mathematical literacy and innovative capacity. Methods: Based on the TIMSS 2023 data and focused on eighth-grade students in Taiwan, China, the United States, and Turkey, the study investigates the interaction mechanisms among students' learning interest (LI), classroom disruptive behavior (CDB), self-efficacy (SE), and complex mathematical problem-solving ability (CMPSA) through constructing a structural equation model. Results: LI, CDB, and SE are significantly correlated with CMPSA and can predict CMPSA. In addition, LI not only influences CMPSA directly, but also has an indirect effect through CDB and SE, including both parallel and chain mediation effects. Cross-cultural analysis further reveals significant regional differences in the impact mechanisms of CMPSA. To be specific, Taiwan, China is mainly characterized by the direct effect of LI, while the United States and Turkey rely on the indirect path of SE. Discussion: These explorations systematically reveal the formation mechanism of CMPSA from the perspective of multidimensional interaction of cognition, emotion, and environment, enrich the cross-cultural theoretical framework of CMPSA, and provide empirical basis for optimizing mathematics teaching practices and formulating regionally adaptive intervention strategies under different education systems.
