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.

Conference Paper Description
A web-based tool is employed to conduct a survey and analyse the accuracy of self-assessment when L1 and L2 are genetically and typologically related: a Spanish class attended by Italian students. The survey includes a questionnaire and a test. A correlation analysis based on Goodman-Kruskal’s Gamma index shows that the self-assessment of general reading skills is weakly correlated with the selfassessment of comprehension of a specialised text. The latter is even more weakly correlated with actual test results. Self-assessment in a context of cognate languages is a poor predictor of students’ actual performances.
