Profiles of cognitive fusion and associated factors among Chinese high school students: a latent profile analysis.
Article in Frontiers in 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
Background: The study aimed to analyze the potential categories of cognitive fusion (CF) among Chinese high school students and to explore the cut-off values and influencing factors for distinguishing the subgroups of cognitive fusion. Methods: 1,014 high school students in Hebi City, Henan Province, China were recruited by Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire from August to October 2024. Latent profile analysis was performed on the cognitive fusion score. The influencing factors associated with different classifications were investigated via multinomial logistic regression and the optimal cut-off value was identified based on the receiver operating characteristic area under curve (ROC AUC). Results: The cognitive fusion of high school students could be categorized into three subgroups: the low-CF group (14.6%), moderate-CF group (58.6%), and high-CF group (26.8%). The high-CF group identified by the questionnaire had a cut-off value of 47.5, with sensitivity at 0.996 and specificity at 0.992. For the low-CF group, the cut-off value was 30.5, sensitivity was 0.986, and specificity was 0.993. Regression analysis revealed that grade12 (aOR = 2.009, 95%CI: 1.323-3.050) and female (aOR = 1.563, 95%CI: 1.085-2.250) were linked to the moderate-CF group. Additionally, students in grade 11 (aOR = 1.940, 95% CI: 1.156-3.256), grade 12 (aOR = 1.704, 95% CI: 1.063-2.730), and females (aOR = 2.147, 95% CI: 1.426-3.233) were more likely to belong to the high-CF group. Conclusion: High school students' cognitive fusion scores can be classified into three potential categories. The screening tool demonstrates effectiveness in identifying high cognitive fusion groups, with significant differences observed across categories based on gender and grade level. Tailored interventions targeting the specific characteristics of each category may contribute to reducing cognitive fusion among high school students.
