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.

Article Description
Several studies have reported the beneficial role of social support on adolescent health. However, few studies have explored the role of peer support on the cycle of weight teasing, psychological distress, and disordered eating. A total of 689 adolescents aged between 13 and 16 years recruited from 37 classes in three middle schools in New Taipei City from March to June 2019 were included for analysis. Path analysis was performed using Hayes' PROCESS module. The study found that weight teasing is directly and indirectly associated with disordered eating through psychological distress. Peer support plays a role in moderating the relationship between weight teasing and psychological distress; however, it is not significantly associated with decreased risk of disordered eating among adolescents experiencing weight teasing. While peer support can be used against the adverse effects of weight teasing, it is not the absolute solution, and additional interventions are warranted.
