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

Introduction: The Comprehensive Test of Nonverbal Intelligence-2 (CTONI-2) assesses nonverbal intelligence from ages 6-90 with 6 subtests divided into a Pictorial composite and a Geometric composite. There was no previously validated Turkish version. The purpose of this study was to adapt the CTONI-2 for Turkish primary-school children aged 8-10 and to test its reliability and validity, while it was also applied to a small pilot sample of secondary-school children ( Methods: The participants of the adaptation study were 590 primary-school students in Turkey. Internal-structure evidence was examined using CFA, and convergent validity was examined through correlations with Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices. KR-20 and test-retest techniques were employed to assess reliability. All six subtests were then administered to the pilot secondary-school sample. Patterns of performance were explored using independent-samples t-tests, one-way ANOVAs, and Pearson correlations, with raw-score percentages used only for exploratory descriptive interpretation. Results: CFA results showed a unidimensional structure with CFI = 0.95, RMSEA = 0.07 and CR = 0.78. KR-20 ranged from 0.79 to 0.94; test-retest from 0.81 to 0.96. The pilot application scores were between 64 and 72% of maximum score per subtest, with all means in the Average-to-Above-Average range. There were no significant differences between males and females. Grade 10 students performed better than Grade 11 students on Geometric Analogies ( Discussion: Given the small and unevenly distributed pilot sample, these findings should be interpreted cautiously. The results support the reliability and validity of the Turkish CTONI-2 in the primary-school adaptation sample and provide preliminary application evidence for secondary-school students.
