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

Objective: To investigate how both school bullying and victimization affects social-emotional competence among Chinese preadolescents and early adolescents, with a specific focus on the potential mediating effect of teacher-student relationships. Methods: The School Bullying, Social-Emotional Competence, and Teacher-Student Relationship Questionnaires were distributed to 1,760 primary and secondary school students. Results: The findings are as follows: (1) School bullying had significant negative associations with teacher-student relationships and students' social-emotional competence. (2) Teacher-student relationships were significantly positively associated with students' social-emotional competence. (3) Both bullying and victimization could directly affect social-emotional competence, indirectly affect social-emotional competence through teacher-student relationships (effect size was 31.35, 18.54%, respectively). Conclusion: To mitigate the negative impact of school bullying on social-emotional competence, an intervention system should be established to restore deteriorated teacher-student relationships.
