Emotional inertia is state-dependent: Capturing asymmetry in resistance to change.

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
Emotional inertia, the resistance to change in feelings, is a central construct in emotion dynamics. However, standard inertia models rely on a simplified assumption of symmetry: They assume that the temporal carryover of affect is identical regardless of whether an individual is feeling better or worse than usual. This masks potentially critical individual differences, as theories of adaptive affective functioning propose rapid recovery from worsened affective states alongside sustained persistence of desirable affective states as hallmarks of healthy affect regulation. To capture individual differences in this asymmetry, we introduce
