Increasing self- and desired psychiatric diagnoses among emerging adults: Mixed-methods insights from clinical psychologists.

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
Anecdotal observations suggest that self-diagnoses and desired psychiatric diagnoses may be increasing among emerging adults, yet systematic evidence from clinical practice is scarce. This mixed-methods study surveyed 93 Austrian clinical psychologists (CPs) regarding their experiences with these phenomena in the context of conducting psychological assessments. CPs rated the frequency of both self-diagnoses and desired diagnoses as significantly higher than the neutral scale midpoint ("no change"), with large effect sizes (both
