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

Objective: This study examined the association between social exclusion and aggressive behavior among students in specialized schools and investigated the mediating roles of relative deprivation and deviant peer affiliation. Method: A total of 491 students from specialized schools completed the Ostracism Experience Scale for Adolescents, Relative Deprivation Questionnaire, Deviant Peer Affiliation Questionnaire, and Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire. Results: Social exclusion was significantly and positively associated with aggressive behavior among students in specialized schools. Relative deprivation and deviant peer affiliation independently mediated the association between social exclusion and aggressive behavior. In addition, relative deprivation and deviant peer affiliation formed a significant serial mediating pathway between social exclusion and aggressive behavior. Conclusion: Social exclusion was directly associated with aggressive behavior and was also indirectly associated with aggressive behavior through relative deprivation and deviant peer affiliation. These findings provide practical implications for the prevention and intervention of aggressive behavior among students in specialized schools.
