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

Introduction: Digitalization is transforming education and increasing the demand for teachers' competencies in integrating digital technologies into instruction. In this context, professional development plays a central role, yet it remains unclear how participation in digitalization-related professional development is associated with different dimensions of teachers' professional competence and whether these relationships differ between STEM and non-STEM teachers. Methods: This study examines how participation in digitalization-related professional development is related to teachers' motivational regulation, digital self-efficacy, digitalization-related knowledge (technological pedagogical knowledge and technological pedagogical content knowledge; TPK/TPACK), ICT-response beliefs, and technology acceptance and competence beliefs, and whether teaching a STEM subject moderates these relationships. A total of 1,031 teachers from North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, completed an online survey. Results and discussion: The results indicate that participation in professional development-particularly when focused on digitalization-is associated with higher levels of motivational regulation, digital self-efficacy, and digitalization-related knowledge (TPACK). Differences between STEM and non-STEM teachers were generally small, although teachers without STEM subjects reported slightly lower TPACK. Correlational analyses revealed positive relationships among digital self-efficacy, digitalization-related knowledge, and technology-related beliefs.
