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 aimed to investigate whether resilience and self-efficacy mediate the relationship between university students' sense of belonging at school and their life satisfaction. The sample consisted of 507 students (360 females, 147 males) from various universities in Türkiye. Data were collected using the Sense of Belonging Scale, General Self-Efficacy Scale, Life Satisfaction Scale, Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, and a Demographic Information Form. The correlation and serial mediation analyses were conducted. School belonging showed strong positive correlations with resilience, self-efficacy, and life satisfaction. Both resilience and self-efficacy independently mediated the link between belonging and life satisfaction, and together they formed a significant serial mediation pathway. The results highlight the importance of fostering a strong sense of belonging to enhance students' resilience and self-efficacy, ultimately promoting higher life satisfaction and overall wellbeing.
