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 examined the Weibull model for individual learning curves in Pavlovian conditioning from a theoretical perspective. Although the Weibull model effectively captures variability in individual learning, it remains unclear what the parameters in this model represent. First, we identified similarities in the mathematical representations of the Weibull and error-correction models and showed that two of the three parameters in the Weibull model can be interpreted in the same manner as those in the error-correction model. Next, to explore possible psychological interpretations of the remaining parameter,
