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

backgroundMotivation for academic reading is a relevant component of initial teacher training. However, little is known about whether distinct motivational profiles exist in association with patterns of substance use and problematic behaviors among prospective teachers.

methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted with 289 students (77.5% female; aged 18-34) enrolled in Early Childhood Education and Primary Education degree programs. Motivation for academic reading was assessed using the Academic Reading Motivation Scale (EMLA), while substance- and behavior-related problems were evaluated using the MULTICAGE CAD-4 questionnaire. Latent profile analysis was used to identify academic reading motivation profiles, and multivariate and post hoc analyses were performed to examine differences in scores across profiles.

resultsThree motivational profiles were identified, characterized by high, intermediate, and low levels of academic reading motivation. Significant differences between profiles were observed regarding problems related to alcohol, drug use, gambling, video games, and compulsive spending.

conclusionsAcademic reading motivation profiles were associated with various screening indicators for substance use and problematic behaviors. Given the cross-sectional and self-report nature of the study, these findings should not be interpreted in terms of causality. The results highlight the potential value of jointly considering academic motivation and health-related behavioral indicators in future teacher training.
