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
In today’s world, ubiquitous learning is recognized as one of the key tools for enhancing educational processes. The role of cognitive and emotional factors in improving student learning, especially in sensitive fields like nursing, is particularly significant. This study aims to examine the causal relationship between cognitive absorption and ubiquitous learning, emphasizing the mediating role of emotional involvement.Background and Objective This study investigates the causal relationship between cognitive absorption and ubiquitous learning, with a focus on the mediating role of emotional involvement among nursing students.Materials and Methods Conducted in 2023, this research involved 1,600 nursing students from Abadan University of Medical Sciences. Using Cochran’s formula, the sample size was determined to be 320 participants, selected through simple random sampling. Data collection tools included the Cognitive Absorption Questionnaire by Agarwal and Karahanna (2000), the ubiquitous learning Scale by Luhmann (2006), and the emotional involvement Scale by Shields et al. (1994).Results Path analysis showed that cognitive absorption had a significant positive effect on emotional involvement (β = 0.36, p < 0.01), and emotional involvement had a significant positive effect on ubiquitous learning (β = 0.22, p < 0.01). The direct effect of cognitive absorption on ubiquitous learning was not significant (β = 0.02, p > 0.05), while the indirect effect via emotional involvement was significant (β = 0.29, p < 0.01), indicating full mediation.Conclusion The results indicate that optimizing educational methods not only improves learning outcomes but also enhances emotional involvement among students. These findings highlight the importance of integrating cognitive and emotional dimensions into educational strategies for nursing students.
