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

Employee well-being has increasingly emerged as a central concern for both organizations and society. However, our understanding of how and when inclusive leadership enhances employee well-being remains limited. Based on self-determination theory and the socially embedded model of thriving at work, this study explored the relationship between inclusive leadership, growth need strength, employee thriving at work, and well-being. Data were collected from 62 teams that totaled 337 full-time employees through a three-wave time-lagged questionnaire. Path analysis and Monte Carlo simulations were conducted on data for hypothesis testing. The results showed that inclusive leadership is positively related to employee well-being. Employee thriving at work played a mediating role between inclusive leadership and employee well-being. Growth need strength moderated the relationship between inclusive leadership and employee thriving at work. These findings are expected to provide valuable insights for organizations aiming to enhance employee thriving at work and well-being.
