Personal resource gains: Effective coping builds academic buoyancy, and academic buoyancy builds achievement.

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
backgroundAcademic buoyancy is conceptualized as students' capacity to cope with academic challenges. Studies that examine how academic buoyancy and coping responses are reciprocally related, or that include relations with achievement, are lacking.
aimsThe study examined reciprocal relations among academic buoyancy, coping and achievement. SAMPLE: The sample comprised students aged 16-19 years in upper secondary education. At the first wave of data collection, there were 533 students (138 male, mean age = 16.4 years).
methodsData were collected in five waves over two school years. Achievement was collected in waves one, three and five. Academic buoyancy and coping were measured in waves two and four via self-report questionnaires.
resultsData were analysed in a structural equation model. Adaptive coping positively and non-adaptive coping negatively predicted subsequent academic buoyancy. Additionally, academic buoyancy predicted subsequent achievement. A positive indirect relation from adaptive coping to subsequent achievement was mediated by adaptive coping.
conclusionsThe findings show that personal resources can operate in cycles of resource gain as 'co-travellers'; effective coping can build academic buoyancy, and academic buoyancy can lead to better achievement. Moreover, study support for students could include ways to develop effective coping responses.
