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

Background: The Depression Anxiety Stress Scale for Youth (DASS-Y) is a psychometric tool designed to assess internalizing problems, including depression, anxiety, and stress in adolescents. This study evaluated the validity and reliability of the Indonesian version of the DASS-Y. Methods: Using a mixed-methods approach with an exploratory sequential design, the DASS-Y was translated into Results: The Indonesian version of the DASS-Y indicated good-to-excellent reliability for the total scale (Cronbach's α = 0.94, item reliability = 0.98, person reliability = 0.84) and robust construct validity (explained variance = 50.1%, unexplained variance = 6.4%). No misfitting items were identified (infit = 0.78-1.41, outfit = 0.61-1.96, point-measure correlation = 0.47-0.72). Differential item functioning (DIF) analysis revealed minimal bias across demographic factors. Conclusion: The Indonesian DASS-Y is a valid and reliable instrument for assessing internalizing problems in Indonesian adolescents aged 10-18 years.
