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 aimed to explore how mindfulness is perceived and experienced by teachers and to develop and validate the Mindfulness in School Scale (MSS) for use in school settings. An exploratory sequential mixed methods design was employed. In the qualitative phase, phenomenological interviews were conducted with 23 teachers selected through purposive maximum variation sampling. Content analysis identified six themes: Self-Observation, Environmental Observation, Self-Awareness, Environmental Awareness, Acceptance, and Reactive Control. These findings informed the development of the MSS. In the quantitative phase, the scale was administered to 663 teachers. Exploratory and Confirmatory Factor Analyses supported a five-dimensional structure comprising Self-Observation, Environmental Observation, Self-Awareness, Environmental Awareness, and Acceptance, explaining 51.46% of the total variance. Standardized CFA factor loadings ranged from 0.50 to 0.90, and the measurement model demonstrated satisfactory fit (χ
