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

The attainment of sufficient peer acceptance profoundly impacts child development and successful school adjustment. This study aims to determine the extent to which child executive functions and classroom quality in kindergarten predict peer acceptance in first-grade schoolers. Data was collected in two different periods, separated by a 1-year interval. At Time 1, classroom quality and executive functions were measured using a sample of 449 children in kindergarten (M = 6.3 years). By the Time 2, the participants were first-grade primary school students and were diagnosed on peer acceptance dimensions: sociometric status, reciprocity, and self-sociometric status (n = 203, M = 7.4 years). Regression models were constructed, controlling for sex, age, nonverbal intelligence, child peer acceptance in kindergarten, kindergarten class, and school class as random effects. The results indicated that executive functions in kindergarten are the primary predictor of the sociometric status, as well as the reciprocity. The kindergarten classroom quality, in terms of emotional support, tends to be the most significant predictor of self-sociometric status.
