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
backgroundThis study aimed to explore the correlation between environmental identity, connectedness to nature, psychological well-being, and eco-anxiety among 2023 Kahramanmaraş earthquake survivors.
methodsThis descriptive and correlational study was conducted using a purposive sampling method with 235 earthquake survivors (75.7% female and aged 18–65 years) residing in three different container settlements in Hatay, Turkey. Data were collected using the Environmental Identity Scale, Nature Connectedness Scale, Eco-Anxiety Scale, and Psychological Well-Being Scale and analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and multiple regression analysis.
resultsThe total environmental identity score of earthquake survivors was 76.31 ± 10.83, nature connectedness was 60.56 ± 8.57, eco-anxiety was 19.00 ± 8.25, and psychological well-being was 40.79 ± 8.30. A significant positive correlation was found between environmental identity, connectedness to nature, and eco-anxiety (p < 0.001). However, no significant correlation was observed between eco-anxiety and psychological well-being (p > 0.05). All predictor variables together explained 11.1% of the variance in psychological well-being (Adjusted R2 = 0.111), indicating a modest effect. Environmental identity emerged as the strongest predictor of psychological well-being (β = 0.255, p < 0.01).
conclusionsThese findings may guide the development of educational programs assisting earthquake survivors in coping with eco-anxiety, strengthening their connection to nature, and enhancing their psychological well-being.
