Unveiling the Nurses' Intentionality in the Transpersonal Caring Relationship: A Technical Action Research.
Article in Scandinavian journal of caring sciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07702006 (The Effect of a Mobile Application-Supported Mindful Caring Education Program on Nurses' Self-care, Self-compassion, Quality of Life, and Nurse-patient Interaction), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
backgroundIntentionality is a transformative antecedent of the transpersonal caring relationship (TCR). This study aimed to unveil the nurses' intentionality in the TCR after the Mindful Caring Education Program.
methodsThis was a technical action research. The study was conducted in three phases: planning, implementation, and evaluation. The researchers developed a four-session education program (EP) based on the Theory of Unitary Caring Science. The clinical observations, individual interviews, and vignettes were used for evaluation. The study was completed with nine female nurses. The data were analysed using content analysis.
findingsIn the study, 4 themes, 11 categories and 8 sub-categories were obtained. Nurses described intentionality as holistic and purposeful actions. Interviews and observations have shown that authentic presence, a helping-trusting caring relationship, and a positive working environment facilitate intentionality. The caring relationship boundaries, heavy working conditions, fatigue, and the dominance of relatives hinder intentionality. Nurses stated significant personal and professional growth after the EP.
conclusionThe study identified various factors that either facilitated or hindered nurses' intentionality in the TCR. By participating in the mindful caring EP, nurses were able to cultivate a deeper sense of self-awareness in both their personal lives and professional relationships.
