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 recent studies recommend making multidimensional selection decisions based on subjective and objective data, in practical settings coaches often decide subjectively. When trying to understand coaches' selection decisions, it is important to regard different theories of decision-making when analyzing predictors. Thus, this study examined predictors for selection decisions by comparing approaches of the theory of both unbounded (logistic regression) and bounded rationality (fast-and-frugal tree, FFTree). Accordingly, this study's aim was twofold: (1) investigate talent aspects in 3 × 3 basketball, and (2) compare different statistical approaches to this investigation. Regarding the underlying process of selection decisions, analyses focused on interrater agreement of subjective assessments and the relevance of different talent aspects. A total of 46 3 × 3 basketball players (female
