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

This study aims to examine the associations between attitudes toward artificial intelligence, critical thinking tendencies, and social intelligence levels among students at the Faculty of Sports Sciences, and to investigate whether these variables differ according to gender and department of study. The participants in this quantitative research study, designed using a correlational survey model, consisted of 407 students (54.8% female, 45.2% male) enrolled in the 2025-2026 academic year in the departments of physical education and sports teaching, coaching education, and recreation at the Faculty of Sports Sciences of a state university. The data collection tools used were the "Personal Information Form," the "Artificial Intelligence Attitude Scale," the "Critical Thinking Tendency Scale (EMI)," and the "Tromsø Social Intelligence Scale." In the statistical analysis of the data, independent samples
