Personality-related learning pathways in virtual simulation: a theory-informed mixed-methods study among standardized training nurses.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 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
Objective: To examine the associations among personality traits, learning behaviors, and learning outcomes in virtual simulation training among standardized training nurses. Methods: An explanatory sequential mixed-methods design was used. In the quantitative phase, 128 nurses completed a virtual simulation program on geriatric fall management. Knowledge was assessed before and after training, personality was measured using the Big Five Inventory-2, and learning behaviors were obtained from the platform. Hierarchical regression was performed with post-test knowledge as the outcome. In the qualitative phase, 17 participants underwent interviews using the Zaltman Metaphor Elicitation Technique. Results: Post-test knowledge scores were significantly higher than pre-test scores (78.44 ± 7.28 vs. 70.93 ± 7.21, Conclusion: Virtual simulation training was associated with improved fall-management knowledge. Learning behaviors were more proximal correlates of knowledge outcomes than personality traits, while personality differences may be reflected in distinct behavioral, emotional, and interpersonal patterns of engagement.
