Habit Formation to Enhance Implementation of Evidence-based Practice.
Review in Administration and policy in mental health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Healthcare professionals often report strong intentions to use evidence-based practices to improve patient care, but intention does not always translate into action. Habits, automatic behaviors generated through repeated cue-behavior associations, may help address the intention-behavior gap and enhance adoption of evidence-based practices. As habits form, behavior control shifts from being internally guided to being triggered by external context cues, which can support making the use of evidence-based practice more routine. Despite calls to integrate habit formation in implementation science, habits have not yet been fully leveraged to select and specify implementation strategies. We argue that habits can be explicitly planned for with targeted cues, behavior routines, and rewards to support healthcare professionals in adopting evidence-based practices. We outline core elements of habit formation and provide case examples to illustrate how habit techniques can be used to catalyze implementation in healthcare.
