Constraints as catalysts: a model of emotional intelligence, team learning, and team resilience, in driving creativity and innovation.

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
The study explains the relationships among perceived constraints, creative solutions, and innovation team practices in tourism organizations operating in fragile, resource-scarce, and conflict-affected settings in the Amhara region, Ethiopia. Based on resilience theory and team learning theory, the research develops a complex conceptual model explaining how perceived constraints affect individual creativity and team practice in innovation via emotional intelligence, team learning, and team resilience. The study employed a cross-sectional quantitative research design and collected data via a survey administered to 287 respondents from tourism enterprises. The tourism organizations were selected using a purposive sampling method, combined with proportional and simple random sampling, from businesses located in the Amhara region. A PLS-SEM with 5,000 bootstrap resamples was used for analysis. It is found that perceived constraints do not affect both creative solution and innovation team practice. Instead, emotional intelligence fully mediates the relationship between perceived constraints and creative solutions. The mediating effect of team learning on the association between perceived constraints and team resilience is significant. The mediating effect of team resilience on the association between team learning and innovation team practices is also significant. In addition, a sequentially mediated effect of team learning and team resilience was found to be significant. This study advances the "constraints-as-enablers" perspective by demonstrating that constraints influence creativity and innovation indirectly through psychological capabilities and adaptive team processes, thereby extending resilience and team learning theories in fragile, resource-constrained tourism contexts.
