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

This paper examines recent research on employment discrimination and addresses basic issues concerning who should be the focal subjects of employment discrimination research and which search terms should be examined. This article proposes that the way forward in employment discrimination research is using empirical legal scholarship and various large databases that support a more holistic approach to examining the different subjects of employment discrimination and the various search terms used to identify employment discrimination issues. This article explains how empirical legal scholarship, content analysis, and thematic analysis can be utilized to better understand employment discrimination. The paper concludes with propositions and recommendations for future research, including an intersectional focus.
