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: China's new social strata represent a critical demographic for social governance, with shared identity perceptions serving as a cohesive force for group solidarity and behavioral regulation. Methods: This study employed a word association task with 256 participants from China's new social strata, followed by lexical network analysis including K-core decomposition to uncover hierarchical identity structures. Results: The social representations of "identity" among this demographic comprise a primary component and three K-core sub-networks. The central core identity system contains 37 pivotal elements classified into categorical identity, relational identity, and symbolic identity, with "Status" and "ID Card" as the most central elements. Discussion: The new social strata perceive identity across three interconnected dimensions forming a "periphery-margin-core" tripartite network model. This structure reveals how institutional mechanisms, particularly China's household registration system, shape subjective identity perceptions in contemporary society.
