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

backgroundThis study aims to examine the direct relationships among learning-centred leadership, positive psychological capital, and teacher leadership, as well as the mediating role of positive psychological capital in the relationship between learning-centred leadership and teacher leadership.

methodsThe sample of the study consists of 513 teachers working in the southeast of Türkiye in the 2023–2024 academic year. The relationships among the variables were analyzed using structural equation modeling.

resultsThe study concluded that learning-centred leadership, positive psychological capital, and teacher leadership are positively and significantly related. Moreover, positive psychological capital partially mediates the relationship between learning-centred leadership and teacher leadership. The findings indicate that learning-centered leadership is significantly related to teacher leadership, both directly and indirectly through positive psychological capital.

conclusionsIn order to encourage teachers' leadership behaviours, it is important for school administrators to exhibit learning-centred leadership and implement initiatives to increase teachers' positive psychological capital. In future studies, factors affecting teacher leadership (individual and organisational) can be determined with larger and different samples or experimental and longitudinal studies.
