The Program for Research on Black Americans' Contributions to Sociology: A Review of the Literature.
Article in Sociological focus, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This article has three goals. The first is to explain the contributions of the Program for Research on Black Americans (PRBA) to the field of sociology. The second is to provide a review of the scope of research conducted by PRBA scholars. This review covers research on Black families, marriage and romantic relationships, racial socialization, interpersonal violence, negative interactions, religious participation and spirituality, religion and mental health, social support, social isolation, mental and physical health, racism and discrimination, colorism, and Black politics. It also covers research on African American and Black Caribbean adolescents, adults, and older adults. The third goal of the article is a bibliometric analysis of National Survey of American Life (NSAL)-based publications including citation analysis, analysis of which journals have published the most NSAL-based articles, and authorship network analysis. The article ends with a brief discussion of our most recent data collection and a conclusion. The article shows that the PRBA, through its research, mentoring, and longevity, has met the criteria of Wright and Thomas's principles of Black sociology.
