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

This study investigated longitudinal dyadic pathways from parents' and adult children's perceived parenting styles to relationship closeness and conflict, with dual filial piety beliefs as potential mediators. A total of 153 parent-child dyads from China participated in a two-wave survey conducted over a one-year interval. At Wave 1, participants reported on perceived parenting styles (authoritative and authoritarian), dual filial piety beliefs (reciprocal and authoritarian), and relationship closeness and conflict. At Wave 2, both parents and children reassessed their perceptions of relationship closeness and conflict. Actor-Partner Interdependence Model revealed parent-child discrepancies: Parents' authoritarian parenting predicted greater closeness and less conflict for themselves, whereas children's perceptions of authoritarian parenting predicted higher conflict. Structural equation modeling showed that reciprocal filial piety mediated the positive association between parents' authoritative parenting and both parents' and children's closeness, and the negative association with both parents' and children's conflict. In contrast, authoritarian filial piety did not mediate any associations. These findings suggest that interventions promoting autonomy-supportive parenting and reciprocal filial values may strengthen parent-child relationships in contemporary Chinese families.
