Event-Informed Systematic Self-Reflections and Stress Reactivity Among Emerging Adults: Insights From an Ecological Momentary Assessment Experiment.
Trial report in Stress and health : journal of the International Society for the Investigation of Stress, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Self-reflection is central to adaptive stress regulation, yet little is known about when immersed versus distanced reflection optimises learning from stressful events. Drawing on Perceptual Control Theory, we propose that matching reflective stance to the emotional salience of stressors-adopting immersion for mild events and distancing for highly significant ones-optimises control-system reorganisation. This triple-blind, parallel-group randomised controlled trial will compare event-informed reflection against fixed self-immersed and self-distanced conditions using ecological momentary assessment. Two hundred and fifty emerging adults (aged 18-25) in the United Kingdom will complete three daily assessments over 14 days. Primary outcomes include stress reactivity (within-person stressor-negative affect slopes) and coping self-insight. We hypothesise that event-informed reflection will attenuate stress reactivity and enhance coping self-insight relative to fixed stances, with coping self-insight mediating effects on reactivity. Dynamic structural equation modelling with Bayesian estimation will test these predictions.
