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

Research on Asian immigrant families has primarily focused on the influence of cultural factors, such as acculturation, on parent-child relationships, yet emerging research suggests that language use may play a critical role, especially when multiple languages (e.g., English and/or a heritage language; HL) may be used in the parent-child communication context. This exploratory study investigated the associations between parent language use and perceived parent-child relationship quality (i.e., positive relationship, parent-child conflict) among Asian immigrant parents (N = 90) of early adolescents ages 9-13. A MANCOVA was conducted to examine these associations, controlling for parent and child sociodemographic factors. Results indicated that parent-reported language use was significantly associated with perceived parent-child conflict: English-speaking parents reported higher levels of parent-child conflict (M = 1.65, SE = 0.29) than their HL-speaking (M = 0.61, SE = 0.30) and bilingual counterparts (M = 0.81, SE = 0.19; F(2, 80) = 4.04, p = 0.021, partial η
