Differentiating the potential of continuum beliefs to reduce the public stigma of schizophrenia, depression, and alcohol dependence: associations with illness recognition and treatment recommendations.

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
Purpose: Promoting continuum beliefs has been discussed as a strategy for stigma reduction. The current study examines associations of continuum beliefs with stigma aspects (stereotypes, emotions, and social distance) and mental health literacy (illness recognition and treatment recommendations). Methods: In 2011, a sample of the German population ( Results: Increased continuum beliefs were strongly related to a Conclusion: Potentially harmful associations of continuum beliefs were found for schizophrenia and depression and should be considered by future studies and intervention designs. These potentially harmful associations are likely outweighed by helpful associations based on prevalence estimates and effect sizes. Associations between continuum beliefs and mental health literacy seem to be illness-dependent. Because of the sociocultural context and the time gap between the study and publication, representativeness for current public attitudes is limited.
