Effect of the Fake Phone Call App on Patient Adherence Behavior and Motivation in Conversation Training Therapy: A Randomized Crossover Trial.
Trial report in American journal of speech-language pathology, 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
purposeThe Fake Phone Call app was previously developed and feasibility-tested for conversational target voice practice in resonant voice therapy. The purpose of the present study was to examine its effect on adherence and motivation for conversational practice in conversation training therapy (CTT) as well as its usability and utility in CTT.
methodEleven patients referred for voice therapy served as their own control in a randomized crossover trial comparing 1 week of app-supported homework practice with 1 week of standard-of-care homework completion in CTT. Dependent variables included adherence and motivation variables. In addition, usability and utility as well as outcomes were examined at study completion.
resultsApp support significantly increased practice frequency, practice fidelity, and goal commitment for practice. Usability and utility were good. Exploratory investigation revealed that patients randomized to receive the app condition first and the standard-of-care condition second had greater gains on all study variables and significantly greater self-reported generalization at treatment completion.
conclusionFake Phone Call support significantly improves adherence and motivation for CTT, with additional benefits when provided earlier in therapy.
