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

Introduction: Educational television programs serve as a potentially accessible learning medium for digitally disadvantaged students, yet the factors shaping their behavioral intention to use such programs remain underexplored. Grounded in the Unified Theory of Technology Acceptance and Use 2 (UTAUT2), this study investigates what drives digitally disadvantaged students to form intentions around using educational television programming. Methods: Partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was employed as the analytical approach to examine the relationships among seven UTAUT2 constructs and behavioral intention. Results: Three constructs-Hedonic Motivation (HM), Habit (H), and Facilitating Conditions (FC)-emerged as meaningful predictors of behavioral intention (BI), with HM being the strongest predictor. Social Influence (SI), Effort Expectancy (EE), Performance Expectancy (PE), and Price Value (PV) failed to reach statistical significance. The model's explanatory capacity for behavioral intention was moderate ( Discussion: For digitally disadvantaged students, the intention to use educational television programs is more influenced by media experience, daily contact, and actual support conditions than by instrumental evaluation, social norms, or price considerations. Beyond extending UTAUT2 to the domain of televised instruction and digitally constrained populations, this investigation yields practical pointers for designing and sustaining accessible learning media.
