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 study examined how parents' attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) tendencies, boredom proneness, and parenting styles are associated with their children's ADHD tendencies and boredom proneness, which have been scarcely studied empirically. Middle-class individuals aged 30-50 years with children in the first-to-third year of elementary school were recruited, and data from 301 parent-child pairs were analyzed. Parents reported their own ADHD tendencies, boredom proneness, and parenting styles, as well as their child's ADHD tendencies, boredom levels, and academic performance. Data on parents' educational background and income levels were also collected as supplementary information. Mothers' and fathers' ADHD tendencies, boredom proneness, and parenting styles were differentially associated with their children's ADHD tendencies and boredom proneness. High ADHD tendencies in children were effectively explained by maternal responsiveness. Additionally, paternal responsiveness interacted with a child's ADHD, significantly increasing the child's boredom level, while maternal control appeared to have an inhibitory effect on boredom. This was among the first to demonstrate the influence of parental variables on children's ADHD tendencies and boredom proneness. These findings contribute to a better understanding of how parental factors are associated with children's ADHD tendencies and boredom proneness, and may help inform coping strategies for children.
