Latent profile analysis of basic psychological need satisfaction and frustration in community-dwelling older adults and its associated factors.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 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
Objective: To explore the latent profile types of basic psychological need satisfaction and frustration in community-dwelling older adults and to identify their associated factors, thereby providing evidence for the development of targeted mental health interventions. Methods: A convenience sampling method was used to recruit 430 older adults living in two communities in Chengdu from October to December 2025. Data were collected using a general information questionnaire, the Chinese version of the Basic Psychological Need Satisfaction and Frustration Scale, the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS), the Short Form of the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS-21), and the Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS). Latent profile analysis was conducted to identify subgroups of basic psychological need satisfaction and frustration. Logistic regression analysis was performed to examine the associated factors of different latent profiles. Results: The latent profile analysis identified four distinct profiles: the Basic Psychological Need Deficiency Type (8.1%), the Basic Psychological Need Satisfaction Type (46.3%), the Basic Psychological Need Balance Type (33.3%), and the Basic Psychological Need Contradiction Type (12.3%). Logistic regression analysis showed that monthly income, living situation, health status, satisfaction with life, depression-anxiety-stress levels, and perceived social support were significant predictors of profile membership. Conclusion: There is significant heterogeneity in basic psychological need satisfaction and frustration in community-dwelling older adults. Tailored and stratified mental health interventions should be implemented based on the characteristics of different profiles to enhance basic psychological need satisfaction and promote active aging.
