Self-reported narrative identity in Norway: psychometric evaluation of the Awareness of Narrative Identity Questionnaire and the Narrative Identity Self-Evaluation scale with focus on personality pathology.
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
Background: Narrative identity has traditionally been assessed with rater-based codings of life event narratives. Recently, the Awareness of Narrative Identity Questionnaire (ANIQ) and the Narrative Identity Self-Evaluation (NISE) were developed to assess central features of narrative identity via self-report. The goal of the study was to examine the internal consistency, structural validity, and criterion-related validity of the Norwegian ANIQ and NISE. Because prior work has specifically linked narrative identity disturbances to personality pathology, criterion validity was investigated in relation to personality functioning and pathological personality traits. Methods: An adult sample ( Results: The results showed that the Norwegian ANIQ and NISE had high internal consistency. While confirmatory factor analyses yielded mixed results for both instruments, subsequent exploratory factor analyses supported the instruments' proposed structures. NISE narrative disturbances showed strong associations with impaired personality functioning and pathological personality traits. Conclusion: It is concluded that the Norwegian ANIQ and NISE show satisfactory reliability, structural validity, and theoretically coherent links to personality functioning and maladaptive personality traits, underscoring the relevance of narrative identity, especially narrative disturbances, for dimensional models of personality disorders.
