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.

Abstract
This study investigates how innovative social media marketing activities influence consumer inspiration, food pleasure, and behavioral intentions in the context of hedonic food consumption and digital marketing innovation. Data collected from 425 consumers who had tried Dubai chocolate products in Türkiye were analyzed using the partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) method with SmartPLS 4 software. The results indicate that personalization, trendiness, and advertisement dimensions significantly enhance consumer inspiration, whereas entertainment and interaction dimensions show no significant effects. Consumer inspiration positively influences repurchase intention, recommendation intention, willingness to pay more, and food pleasure. Furthermore, food pleasure exerts a significant positive effect on recommendations and willingness to pay more but not on repurchase intention. Mediation analysis revealed that food pleasure partially mediates the relationships between consumer inspiration, recommendation intention, and willingness to pay more, whereas no mediating effect was found for repurchase intention. These findings contribute to innovation and knowledge literature by demonstrating how digital marketing activities foster emotional engagement, enhance consumer experiences, and promote sustainable behavioral intentions in the hedonic food sector.
