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: Self-regulation (SR) competences have consistently been associated with aggressive and non-aggressive antisocial behavior (AAB). However, their relative importance remains unclear when various SR competences are simultaneously considered and when they are related to different long-term trajectories of AAB. In addition, little is known about potential differential associations with AAB measures. Methods: This study investigated developmental trajectories of physical, relational, reactive, and proactive aggression; non-aggressive antisocial behavior; and an AAB total score in relation to multiple SR competences in 1,657 children (52% girls; aged 6-11 years; Results: Latent class growth analyses indicated four trajectories for all AAB measures, mostly a stable low, increasing, decreasing, and stable high trajectory, or four rather parallel trajectories. Multinomial logistic regressions suggested that particularly planning behavior ( Discussion: These findings underpin that SR competences-particularly inhibition and planning-may serve as longitudinal protective factors and suggest that universal prevention programs are more effective than highly specific interventions to tackle AAB in the long run.
