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

Previous research has demonstrated a link between perceived parental technoference-defined as parents' technology-related interruptions during interactions-and adolescents' smartphone addiction. However, the underlying mechanisms of this relationship remain insufficiently understood. The present study investigates the association between perceived parental technoference and smartphone addiction among Chinese adolescents, with a particular focus on the mediating effects of attentional shifting and parent-child conflict, as well as the moderating role of mindfulness. Data were collected through a questionnaire survey administered to 1084 adolescents in Hebei Province, China. The findings revealed that perceived parental technoference was negatively associated with adolescents' smartphone addiction, and this relationship was mediated by attentional shifting and parent-child conflict. In addition, mindfulness moderated the relationship between perceived parental technoference and parent-child conflict. These findings help us to gain a deeper understanding of the mechanism in associations between perceived parental technoference and smartphone addiction. They also offer useful implications for social workers and practitioners to develop interventions that effectively reduce smartphone addiction among adolescents.
