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

Positive Youth Development (PYD) conceptualizes youth as agentic, developmentally flexible individuals whose functioning reflects dynamic person-context transactions. Rapid developments in AI now offer new opportunities to support counselors and extend intervention-based programs. The purpose of this paper is to outline an eight-week AI-supported PYD intervention for high school students and frame a feasibility-oriented mixed-method outcome research design. The model integrates daily AI micro-nudges, short voluntary micro-coaching dialogues, and one weekly 10-15-min counselor mini-session. Trait-level outcomes (self-regulation and school belonging) are assessed pre-post; state-level micro-regulation is assessed daily via Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA). Quantitative analysis uses Lakens's generalized within-subject effect-size formulation and baseline trend-corrected Tau-U; qualitative analysis uses deductive thematic analysis. The design is intended to demonstrate whether mechanism-consistent developmental micro-arrangements occur in naturalistic conditions rather than to test causal efficacy. This paper provides a research-ready protocol for future randomized controlled trials in AI-supported school-based intervention program.
