Validating the Adult Concentration Inventory for Measuring Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome in an Iranian Population: Insights Into Mental Health and Cognitive Functioning.
Article in Brain and behavior, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundRecently, research on cognitive disengagement syndrome (CDS)-previously known as sluggish cognitive tempo-has expanded considerably. The Adult Concentration Inventory (ACI) is designed to assess CDS, and its psychometric soundness, including validity and reliability, needs to be evaluated across diverse countries and populations.
methodsThis study assesses the questionnaire's psychometric properties in Iran. The study included 2855 people, 69% of whom were female and had a mean age of 27.42. The ACI questionnaire, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and Executive Skills Questionnaire-Revised (ESQ-R) were completed in this study.
resultsWe found that the three-factor model (attention problems, sluggishness, and mind-wandering) matches the questionnaire using exploratory and confirmatory analysis. Based on the fit indices, the original correlated three-factor model of the ACI was considered adequate: χ
conclusionsThe results of this study demonstrated that CDS in Iranian society may be measured using the ACI questionnaire.
