Central and Peripheral People in a Social Representation Network.
Article in International review of social psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Within the framework of network analysis of social representations, attention is directed toward individuals' centrality within an opinion network. The objective is to identify the characteristics of those who occupy central positions, as well as those on the periphery. To illustrate this approach, we present a study conducted with 1,000 American voters affiliated with the Republican Party, who were surveyed regarding five climate change adaptation policies. The findings indicate that central individuals in the studied network provide more accurate estimations of perceived consensus within the group. Interestingly, the most peripheral individuals appear to form an active minority, engaging in a higher frequency of social interactions within the group. These results suggest that identifying both central and peripheral individuals may offer new insights for research on social representations.
