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

Haptic angle discrimination is an important paradigm for studying human perceptual decision-making. Traditional research has mostly focused on the measurement of perceptual sensitivity (such as thresholds), while neglecting the crucial role of cognitive strategies during task execution. This study aims to explore how different cognitive decision-making strategies affect behavioral performance (discrimination accuracy and decision-making efficiency) in the task of sorting from the tactile perspective. We recruited 18 healthy subjects and asked them to complete the same Angle ranking task using two strategies respectively: (1) the "successive minimum Angle" strategy stipulated in the experiment; (2) the optimal strategy chosen by the subjects themselves. We fitted the perceived uncertainty parameter (
