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

objectiveThe objective of this study is to gather participant preferences to inform the development of digitally delivered cooking interventions using the first 2 stages of the Behavior Change Wheel design process.

designCross-sectional, open-ended questions to solicit preferences for content delivery and program topics. Participants were grouped as low or high cooking agencies, and differences in preferences were evaluated.

settingSurvey administered via the Amazon Mechanical Turk platform.

participantsA total of 465 US residents (aged ≥ 20 years) were included (47.1% low cooking agency and 52.9% high cooking agency). MAIN OUTCOME: Intervention components identified using the Behavior Change Wheel. ANALYSIS: Qualitative conventional content analysis and quantitative between-group t test and chi-square tests of homogeneity.

resultsIntervention components identified were education and training (roasting, knife skills), modeling (using content experts, showcasing accomplishments), restructuring the social environment (group interaction, problem-solving), enablement (recipes, kitchen items, shopping lists, food), and incentivization (incentives, competitions). Some participant suggestions differed by cooking skill level. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: This study provides evidence for components needed to design digitally delivered cooking interventions. Future considerations include exploring differences in content by cooking skill level, alignment of intervention activities with relevant psychosocial theories, and conducting population-specific needs assessments to understand whether target populations are able to access digital interventions.
