Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
The aim of this paper is to investigate the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic on the mobility behavior of citizens and to assess temporary measures to change mobility in the city of Thessaloniki through a questionnaire survey. The research focuses on recording and analyzing the habits, attitudes, and intentions of the active population towards temporary measures to change mobility at two (2) time intervals: before the pandemic and during the imposed pandemic restrictions. Specifically, we study the new measures against the pandemic implemented in the city of Thessaloniki and the creation of temporary mobility projects that favored active mobility, such as the construction of bicycle paths and sidewalks. We compare citizens’ mobility habits such as the frequency of their movements and the choice of mode of transportation before and after the pandemic and through the results, we find out how much their daily life has been affected. Next, we examine their reactions to the new measures taken with regard to their mobility with questions concerning temporary changes to public transportation and traffic bans. According to the results, it is essential to mention the support of the citizens regarding the creation of bicycle paths and sidewalks, as well as new parks in the city. Finally, with the help of the questionnaire, the above data were collected, and conclusions were drawn that helped in the formulation of proposals for the creation of new measures for a better, more citizen-friendly urban environment.
