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

Trait emotional intelligence (EI) has been consistently associated with academic achievement, yet most empirical work has used global EI scores rather than examining how its four dimensions (well-being, self-control, emotionality, and sociability) contribute differentially. The present study addresses this gap through a dimensional analysis of trait EI as a correlate of English language achievement in a sample of 666 Saudi undergraduate students. Participants completed the Short Form of the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (TEIQue-SF), and their final English course grades served as the measure of language achievement. Global trait EI correlated positively with achievement (
