Workplace ostracism and political behavior: a moderated mediation model of moral disengagement and supervisor-rated job performance.
Article 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: Workplace ostracism is common in many organizations and has grown to be a significant factor affecting employees' attitudes and behaviors. This study investigates the mediating role of moral disengagement and the moderating role of supervisor-rated job performance in the relationship between workplace ostracism and employees' political behavior. Methods: Questionnaires were used to collect data from 408 Chinese employees across various industries. MPLUS and SPSS were used to test the model fit and hypotheses, respectively. Results: The results showed that workplace ostracism positively affects political behavior through moral disengagement. Additionally, the effect of workplace ostracism on moral disengagement and the indirect effect of moral disengagement are both negatively moderated by supervisor-rated job performance. Discussion: In addition to offering theoretical insights into the mechanisms underlying workplace ostracism and employees' political behavior, this study has practical implications for organizations looking to control organizational political behavior by improving performance evaluation systems and addressing employees' moral disengagement.
