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

This study aimed to adapt the Five-Factor Religious and Spiritual Struggles Scale (RSS-FF), a 22-item version derived from the original Religious and Spiritual Struggles Scale with the Demonic subscale omitted, into Turkish and to examine its psychometric properties in Türkiye. The data of the current study were obtained using snowball and convenience sampling methods. A total of 327 participants, 245 female (74.9%) and 82 male (25.1%), aged between 18 and 58 (M = 30.3, SD = 10.1), constituted the sample of the study. The Five-Factor Religious and Spiritual Struggles Scale, Spirituality Scale, and Meaning in Life Questionnaire were administered to the participants, along with the Satisfaction With Life Scale and the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale Short Form. To evaluate structural validity, confirmatory factor analysis was conducted based on widely accepted structural equation modeling criteria, yielding acceptable model fit indices (χ
