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

Introduction: Highlighting the critical role of organizational context in Generative AI (GAI) integration, this study proposes a multilevel model to explore the interplay between individual teacher development and school-level factors. Specifically, we examine how teacher digital literacy and pedagogical leadership mediate the link between GAI adoption and deep integration, alongside the moderating role of school innovation climate. Methods: Data from 512 teachers across 45 schools in China were analyzed using multilevel structural equation modeling (MSEM) and hierarchical linear modeling (HLM). This design allowed for the simultaneous assessment of sequential mediation pathways at the individual level and cross-level interactions involving organizational climate. Results: Results confirmed a sequential mediation: GAI adoption enhances digital literacy, which boosts pedagogical leadership, ultimately driving deep integration. Crucially, school innovation climate functioned as a significant cross-level moderator ( Discussion: These findings demonstrate that GAI's transformative potential relies on a synergy between individual competencies and a supportive organizational environment. The study suggests that to maximize technological efficacy, policymakers and leaders must prioritize cultivating innovation-supportive school climates alongside individual training.
