Article in Archives of sexual behavior, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Feminism is culturally salient for adolescent girls and may be psychologically protective. Despite adolescence being a key period of identity development, little is known about how adolescent girls perceive and orient toward feminism. Using a diverse sample of 586 adolescent girls from across the US (32% Black, 28% white, 11% Latina, 5% Asian American, 21% multiracial), a mixed methods analysis was conducted to explore (1) girls' rates of feminist orientation, (2) their beliefs about feminism, and (3) the psychosocial factors related to a feminist orientation. Nearly half of girls considered themselves to be feminists and qualitative responses revealed considerable diversity and nuance in girls' beliefs about feminism, including varied praises and criticisms. Quantitative analysis showed feminist orientation to be correlated with more frequent experiences with gender discrimination, as well as indices of gender identity, including gender identity centrality and self-perceived similarity to boys (though not similarity to girls). These findings provide important insights into the ways a feminist identity can support adolescent girls' well-being.
