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

objectiveAlcohol use problems and impulsivity predict intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration. Adaptive cognitive emotion regulation skills may be a protective moderating factor in the relation between impulsivity and IPV perpetration. However, the relationships among impulsivity, adaptive emotion regulation, and IPV perpetration have rarely been studied in a dyadic context. This work examined the moderating influence of both actors' and their partners' adaptive emotion regulation skills on the relationship between impulsivity and IPV perpetration after accounting for alcohol use problems.

methodOne hundred adult romantic couples completed this study. All couples had a history of AUD and physical IPV in their current relationship. Data analyses were conducted using four mixed effects models with indistinguishable dyads to examine the interactive effects between impulsivity and both partners' and actors' adaptive emotion regulation skills in predicting physical and psychological IPV perpetration severity.

resultsContrary to hypotheses, no interaction effects emerged. Contrary to prior literature, adaptive cognitive emotion regulation skills were not related to IPV perpetration for either actors or partners after accounting for impulsivity and alcohol use problem severity.

conclusionsFor couples at high risk for alcohol-related IPV, cognitive emotion regulation skills may not be sufficient to prevent perpetration. It is critical to continue examining therapeutically modifiable protective factors against IPV in high risk dyadic contexts.
