Authoritarianism in youth social life: systematic literature review (2015-2025).
Synthesis in Frontiers in psychology, 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
Introduction: In contexts of institutional erosion and polarization, authoritarian expressions among young people have emerged, straining democracy and civic coexistence. This review aims to identify the main manifestations of authoritarianism in youth social life and analyze their implications for democratic coexistence. Methods: A systematic review of the literature (2015-2025) was conducted in journals indexed in Web of Science and Scopus, following the PRISMA protocol. Out of n = 681 studies identified, n = 43 were selected for final analysis. Results: Four analytical dimensions were identified: social dominance, traditionalism-sexism-fundamentalism, mental health-parenting styles, and contextual-cultural perspectives, which expand the classical understanding of the phenomenon. Discussion: These dimensions highlight the increasing validation of authoritarian values linked to the rise of violence and social inequality, positioning authoritarianism as a relational and situated phenomenon that threatens democratic coexistence.
