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
Sikhism is a widely practiced religion that guides its followers regarding a healthy way of living. This chapter starts by discussing the demography and history of Sikhs. The chapter then identifies the various aspects of Sikh philosophy that prop- agate the idea of flourishing. Further, it explores the various teachings and practices within Sikhism that are related to positive psychological well-being and examines the application of several daily practices in enhancing well-being. This chapter attempts to synthesize empirical evidence in favor of these practices and highlight gaps that exist in the existing literature. It further explores the utilization of the Sikh belief system and practices in the psychotherapeutic context and discusses the Sikh psycho- logical models proposed for intervention. It also examines the role of the Sikh belief system in acting as a possible barrier to the accessibility of mental health services for Sikh followers. The chapter ends by highlighting the scope of future research.
