Testing a community-based non-familial intergeneration life skill education model-impact on the mental health of adolescents and the senior educators in India: protocol of quasi-experimental study.
Article in BMC public health, 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
backgroundIntergenerational learning provides both an opportunity to learn new skills and gives a sense of purpose to both adolescents and the senior educators. In India, many schools have not yet implemented life skill education (LSE), this model will help them implement LSE without any significant financial burden. There is no research that examines the mutually beneficial impact of LSE delivered by the senior educators on the mental health of adolescents and the senior educators. The study aims to (1) To assess the impact of life skill education on mental health indicators of adolescents and senior educators. (2) To assess the acceptability of the model by the senior educators and adolescents.
methodsThis quasi experimental, multicentric study will involve 9th & 10th grade students and senior educators (≥ 60 years) from Punjab and Chandigarh. In the experimental arm students will get LSE from the trained senior educators and in the control arm students will get LSE as per school guidelines. A total of 864 students shall be recruited from 12 schools of both sites. LSE will be given to classes 9th and 10th by twelve trained senior educators. Assessment of the students and senior educators will be done using validated scales before and after the intervention and through focus group discussion. DISCUSSION: This innovative study will develop and assess a practical, acceptable and mutually beneficial LSE model, delivered by senior educators to school going adolescents. The findings of this study may considerably improve the mental health of both adolescents and senior educators.
