Article in Scandinavian journal of psychology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Entering higher education can represent significant challenges to the adaptation of young students. Supportive family relationships and mental health literacy can act as protective factors, favoring regulatory mechanisms that promote adaptive experiences. This study aims to analyze the role of attachment to parents in well-being and psychopathological symptoms, as well as the role of mental health literacy in these outcomes, testing the mediating role of emotional regulation in the above associations. The sample consisted of 2258 young adults aged 18 to 35, collected using a random probabilistic method. The measures for data collection were a demographic questionnaire, the Psychological Well-Being Manifestation Measure Scale, the Affect Regulation Checklist, the Mental Health Literacy Scale, and the Short Form Version of the Father and Mother Attachment Questionnaire. The results reveal indirect effects of emotional regulation on the association between parental attachment and well-being, as well as with psychopathological symptoms. Similarly, there are positive associations between mental health literacy and well-being and psychopathological symptoms in young students. The results will be discussed in light of attachment theory, emphasizing individual and relational resources in promoting well-being and mental health among university students. The study's practical implication involves designing interventions that bolster parental engagement while concurrently fostering student autonomy.
