Results were comparable to the first group who received a generalised job crafting intervention, and no variation in positive study outcomes was reported between the two job crafting treatment groups.
“Results were comparable to the first group who received a generalised job crafting intervention and therefore no variation in positive study outcomes was reported between the two job crafting treatment groups.56”

Both interventions had positive outcomes, but §3.2 reports a variation the claim denies: task and contextual performance improved significantly in Study 1, whereas neither showed a significant intervention effect in Study 2. The paper compared each intervention with its own control group, not the two treatment groups directly; page numbers are unavailable in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Checked by a reasoning model — may be wrong.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
