Article in Inclusive practices, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Despite studies showing that students who have more self-determination-those who make more decisions and have more control over their lives-have more successful educational experiences and adult lives, research and scholarship document the existence of a "School-to-Guardianship Pipeline." There, educational professionals recommend that parents seek guardianship over their children with disabilities, without explaining or exploring other options that may preserve or build their self-determination. This article documents the importance of self-determination to life and educational outcomes for people with disabilities, and summarizes research showing how overbroad and undue guardianship-guardianships that remove more rights than necessary or that remove rights from someone who is able to exercise them independently or with support-can decrease quality of life. Then, the authors show how Supported Decision-Making can serve as an alternative to guardianship and a way to enhance self-determination, and recommend ways to incorporate supported decision-making into special education supports and services.
