The Role of Subjective Well-Being in Therapist Responsiveness and Session Evaluation: A 10-Wave Longitudinal Study.
Article in Clinical psychology & psychotherapy. 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
Our study examined the dynamics of the therapist responsiveness (TR) as well as session evaluation by the therapist (SET) with regard to weekly fluctuations in their subjective well-being (SWB: satisfaction with life and positive/negative affect) in a 10-week prospective framework while controlling for sociodemographic and work-related variables. In all, 296 therapists participated in this longitudinal study. The participants filled, after the session with a client chosen for the study period, the Patients' Experience of Attunement and Responsiveness Scale-Therapist Version, the Session Evaluation Questionnaire and the Satisfaction With Life Scale (with the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule) each week. Generalised estimating equations showed that better SWB of therapists was related to almost all the studied dimensions of TR and SET in the sessions during the period of observation. We also noticed significant differences in these associations when we analysed sociodemographic and work-related variables. The findings call for a greater focus on the psychological well-being of therapists, which may be linked to the quality of their work with the clients. The therapist's individual characteristics should be taken more into account in studies on the mechanisms of change in psychotherapy research.
