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

Police officers perform an important service, but certain aspects of the job can result in officers suffering from work-family conflict (WFC). The current study examined how time-, behavior-, strain-, and family-based WFC were related to the three burnout dimensions of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and a reduced sense of accomplishment at work among 589 police officers in China. Behavior-, strain-, and family-based WFC were associated with greater emotional exhaustion. Behavior- and family-based WFC were associated with greater depersonalization, but time-based WFC was associated with lower depersonalization. Time-based WFC also had a significant negative association with a reduced sense of accomplishment at work, while behavior-based conflict had a significant positive association. The results indicate that WFC contributes to job burnout for officers in China, as it does for officers in other nations, and that WFC differs in its relationships with the three burnout dimensions.
