Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting 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.

Review Description
This study identifies that the underlying root cause of construction disputes is contract incompleteness caused by bounded rationality and uncertainty. Using the relative importance index (RII) and confirmatory factor analysis(CFA) from SEM AMOS, this study examines the occurrence likelihood and significant effect on dispute occurrence in the contract incompleteness minefield ( ambiguity of contract document (AOD), deficiency of contract document (DOD), inconsistency of contract document (IOD), and defectiveness of contract document (CDD)), and the manifestation of opportunism ( violation of commitment (VOC), forced renegotiation (FRC), evasion of obligations (EOB), and refusal to adapt to change (RAC)). A large-scale survey of 350 professionals from the Nigerian construction industry was conducted. The RII result of the highly ranked minefield of the manifestation of contract incompleteness shows the interrelationship between contract incompleteness and dispute occurrence. Likewise, the CFA result significantly affects contract incompleteness on dispute occurrence. Therefore, the need to minimise contract incompleteness in the Nigerian construction industry becomes a pertinent issue to reduce dispute occurrence.
