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

introductionMental health problems are increasingly prevalent among school-aged children and adolescents, underscoring the need for teacher-inclusive mental health interventions.

objectivesTo examine the association between sociodemographic and socioemotional factors and resilience among teachers, prior to their participation in a school-based intervention aimed at strengthening socioemotional competencies.

methodsA cross-sectional analytical study was conducted among 693 teachers from 56 public schools in Amazonas, Boyacá, and Vaupés, Colombia. Teachers completed standardized instruments including the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), Compassion Scale (ECOM), and Prosocial Personality Battery (PSB), along with mental health screeners for anxiety (HARS), depression (Whooley), and PTSD (PCL-C). Descriptive statistics, bivariate analyses, and multivariate linear regressions were used to assess associations between socioemotional factors and resilience scores.

resultsThe mean age was 47.13 years (SD = 9.91); most were female (65.95%). Median resilience score was 76 (IQR = 69-86). Teachers from Vaupés showed higher resilience, while those from Boyacá had lower scores. Higher compassion (ECOM: β = 0.23; 95% CI: 0.10-0.36) and prosociality scores (PSB: β = 0.43; 95% CI: 0.31-0.54) were independently associated with increased resilience. Conversely, higher anxiety levels (HARS: β = -0.22; 95% CI: -0.39 to - 0.06) and a positive depression screen (Whooley: β = -2.46; 95% CI: -5.18 to 0.25) were associated with lower resilience scores. Age and sex were not independently associated with resilience in the adjusted model.

conclusionsMental health programs in school settings should prioritize teacher well-being as a central component for promoting student mental health outcomes. Findings underscore the relevance of addressing socioemotional skills and resilience in educators, particularly in contexts affected by armed conflict.
