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

backgroundAs accelerating population aging increases the burden of neurological disorders, assessing cognitive reserve has become crucial for identifying resilience to decline. However, its evaluation is often hindered by instruments lacking the cultural sensitivity and psychometric rigor necessary for different populations.

objectiveThis study aimed to examine the psychometric properties and factorial structure of the Italian version of the Subjective Cognitive Reserve Questionnaire (SCR-Q) in a general adult population.

methodsA total of 225 adults (mean age = 51.84 years, SD = 14.08; 69.8% women) completed an online assessment including the SCR-Q and resilience, life satisfaction, and anxiety measures in an incidental sample selection. The sample was randomly divided for exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Internal consistency, factorial validity, and convergent/divergent validity were evaluated.

resultsEFA and CFA supported a two-factor structure reflecting a physical health dimension and a cognitive-social dimension, with the two-factor model showing acceptable fit and outperforming a unidimensional solution. Internal consistency was adequate for the total scale (α = 0.795; ω = 0.850) and for both subfactors. SCR-Q scores were positively associated with resilience and life satisfaction and negatively associated with anxiety, with stronger associations observed for the cognitive-social factor.

conclusionsThe Italian SCR-Q demonstrates satisfactory psychometric properties and supports a multidimensional conceptualization of subjective cognitive reserve integrating physical, cognitive, and psychosocial domains. The instrument represents a brief and ecologically valid tool for population-level screening and prevention research.
