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

Recent research has shown that sleep is associated with moral judgment. Most of these studies have focused on moral awareness and unethical behaviors but far fewer have examined the impact of sleep on moral utilitarianism. We report a set of six preregistered cross-sectional studies which explore the association between moral utilitarianism and sleep quantity and quality at both the acute and chronic levels. A total of 582 participants drawn from diverse populations (USA, UK and France) addressed various measures of sleep quantity, sleep quality, and moral utilitarianism. We report a meta-analysis which showed only a weak association between sleep and moral utilitarianism. Despite the heterogeneity in the samples and methods employed, equivalence tests ruled out the possibility that we missed medium to strong effect sizes. We discuss the implication of these findings in the light of the moral judgment literature.
