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: This study examined the role of perceived parental encouragement (PPE) in self-efficacy and resilience among Mainland Chinese college students and whether family environmental factors moderated these associations. Method: Using a cross-sectional correlational design, 185 participants from 48 universities across 18 cities in China completed measures of PPE, self-efficacy, resilience, and family environment, including Conflict, Cohesion, and Expressiveness. Correlational, regression, and moderation analyses were conducted. Results: Results indicated that PPE was positively associated with both self-efficacy and resilience and significantly predicted both outcomes. Family Conflict significantly moderated the association between PPE and resilience. Higher Family Conflict weakened the positive relationship between PPE and resilience. Family Cohesion and Expressiveness did not significantly moderate associations between PPE and either outcome. Additional differences were found across gender, only-child status, and city tier. Conclusion: These findings suggest that PPE may serve as an important family-related resource for psychological well-being among Chinese college students, but its positive association with resilience may be attenuated in high-conflict family environments. The findings highlight the importance of considering both parental support and harmony in understanding psychological well-being within the Chinese cultural context.
