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

Psychometric research on eustress-the positive experience of a challenging situation-faces a variety of issues that include: What features of eustress are central to experiencing challenging situations positively? What psychometric structure best fits these features (unidimensional, multidimensional, bifactor)? How is eustress related to distress and wellbeing? Can individuals be clustered effectively into different eustress profiles? To address these issues, we developed a novel eustress instrument: the Comprehensive Hierarchical Eustress Review (CHER), motivated by a new model, the Comprehensive Hierarchical construct of Eustress (CHE). Analogous to the CHE model, the CHER instrument contains 3 subscales for CHE's 3 sources of eustress (goal-directed action, momentary experience, stable qualities) with 47 items that reflect the 47 features of eustress that CHE extracted from the literature. To evaluate CHER and explore its potential for understanding eustress, we assessed it in a well-powered adult UK sample (
