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
Adopting a broad cognitive neuroscience perspective, this chapter addresses the idiosyncratic root–level semantic components of action verbs, focusing specifically on visual and motor features. Two hypotheses are considered: first, the visual–motion patterns encoded by action verbs depend on the left posterolateral temporal cortex; and second, the body–part–specific motor patterns encoded by action verbs depend on the left premotor and primary motor cortex. Recent findings supporting both hypotheses are drawn from studies employing diverse brain–mapping techniques. In addition, several issues requiring further research are identified and discussed.
