The relationship between intellectual curiosity and learning engagement in mathematics among adolescents: an analysis of chain multiple mediating effects.
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
Introduction: Learning engagement (LE) is a core determinant of academic achievement and educational quality. Methods: Based on PISA 2022 data and focusing on a sample of adolescents in Korea ( Results: The significant correlations were demonstrated of varying strengths among IC, UTS, TTS, ATS, OTS, SB, and LE. Further analysis indicated that IC not only influences LE directly, but also exerts indirect effects through UTS, TTS, ATS, OTS, and SB. Specifically, TS and SB exhibited both multiple parallel and multiple chain mediating effects in the relationship between IC and LE, thereby extending the self-determination theory. Additionally, subgroup analyses revealed that the mechanism exhibited significant and distinct divergence along the gender dimension. For instance, males reported a lower perception of TTS, whereas females' LE is more strongly shaped by the indirect effects of TS and SB. Discussion: These findings elucidate the complex mechanisms how IC affects LE, validate the four-dimensional structure of TS to extend SDT, offer a gender-sensitive intervention perspective for differentiated teaching, as well as provide practical insights for the holistic development of adolescents.
