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

Aim: Translating the Self-Expression and Emotion Regulation in Art Therapy Scale (SERATS) into Chinese and adapting it for use by Chinese university students majoring in art and design. Methods: After translating the SERATS into Chinese, we adapted it to the Self-Expression and Emotion Regulation in Art Making Scale (SERAMS). A total of 209 university students majoring in art and design were recruited to examine the reliability and validity of the scores derived from the SERAMS; of these participants, 121 were retested 2 weeks later. Another 200 university students majoring in art and design were selected to perform Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). Results: The SERAMS is unidimensional and consists of nine items. The explained variance of SERAMS is 51.124%. CFA validated that the one-factor model fit with the data of SERAMS. Standardized factor loadings ranged between 0.688 and 0.733. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient of SERAMS was 0.880. Correlation analysis was performed between SERAMS and The General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) to calculate the criterion-related validity ( Conclusion: SERAMS has relatively good reliability and validity. It can be used to assess the self-expression and emotion regulation abilities of Chinese university students majoring in art and design.
