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

Racial socialization is a common parenting strategy among Black American caregivers in which they transmit messages about Black American heritage, preparation for discrimination, self- esteem, and connectedness with other racial-ethnic groups. Racial socialization messages foster the development of an understanding of race in Black youth. Racial socialization has been linked to positive outcomes among Black youth, including higher self-esteem and improved mental health outcomes. However, less is known about factors that predict Black caregivers' use of different racial socialization strategies. To better understand variability in racial socialization messages among Black families, this study examined neighborhood disorder and social cohesion, parents' and their children's experiences of racial discrimination, and parents' depressive symptoms as predictors of caregivers' transmission of messages of cultural socialization, racial barriers, and preparation for bias using data from a sample of Black families living in the rural Southern U.S. Results revealed several direct and indirect effects and suggest that it is important to further consider linkages between parents' experience of contextual stressors, their mental health, and their racial socialization practice.
