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

Although evidence-based practices can enhance educational outcomes, a persistent gap exists between research and practice. Advancing the understanding and use of implementation science among educational researchers has potential to close this gap. This study uses person-centered approaches to identify profiles of educational researchers (N = 140) according to interest, knowledge, and use of four implementation science constructs (determinants, strategies, outcomes, theories). We examined whether profile membership was predicted by researcher career level/type and project topic and type. Participants were moderately to very interested to learn more about implementation constructs, but were only a little to somewhat likely to be knowledgeable about them or incorporate them into their research. Three profiles were identified: High Knowledge/High Use/High Interest, Low Knowledge/Low Use/High Interest, and Low Knowledge/Low Use/Low Interest. Profile membership was not predicted by project type, topic area, or career level. Implications for enhancing implementation science training for educational researchers are discussed.
