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

objectiveThis study based on the Kumpfer’s resilience framework, examines the relationship between fathers’ involvement and preschoolers’ resilience, focusing on the mediating role of preschoolers’ executive function and the moderating role of preschoolers’ extraversion.

methodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted with 3,303 preschoolers aged 3–5 and their fathers using four validated instruments: the Fathers’ Involvement Scale, the Executive Function Scale, the Devereux Early Childhood Assessment for Preschoolers Second Edition, and the Extraversion Scale. A moderated mediation model was employed to analyze the relationships among fathers’ involvement, preschoolers’ resilience, executive function and extraversion.

resultsFathers’ involvement had a significant positive impact on preschoolers’ resilience. Executive function played a mediating role between them. Meanwhile, extraversion moderated the relationship between preschoolers’ executive function and resilience. The research results indicated that a high level of fathers’ involvement enhanced preschoolers’ resilience through their executive function. When preschoolers’ extraversion was low, the moderating effect between executive function and preschoolers’ resilience was more significant.

conclusionThis study revealed the impact of fathers’ involvement on preschoolers’ executive function and resilience, and highlighted the moderating role of preschoolers’ extraversion. Interventions should focus on promoting the active involvement of fathers and enhancing executive function in preschoolers, particularly paying attention to different levels of extraversion, to enhance preschoolers’ resilience.
