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.

Article Description
Mental health problems of various populations during the COVID-19 pandemic have received high attention, but there is little research on the mental health of Chinese civil servants. The present study investigated occupational stress, mental health problems (i.e., anxiety, depression, and insomnia), social support, and work-family conflict in Chinese civil servants during the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 327 civil servants in Wenzhou city, China, participated in an online survey, which collected data on socio-demographic characteristics, occupational stress, mental health problems (i.e., anxiety, depression, and insomnia), social support, and work-family conflict. Data were analyzed using non-parametric tests and a multiple mediation model. Self-reported risk at work and support from mental health workers were relatively low. Anxiety, depression, and insomnia prevalence were 49.24 %, 47.1 %, and 20.48 %, respectively. Those who held higher ranks at work had lower levels of anxiety and depression. In addition, those who felt bad about their health status had more mental health problems. Social support and work-family conflict mediated the relationship between occupational stress and mental health problems significantly. Stress management training, organizational-level improvement in work arrangements, and professional mental health services are warranted for Chinese civil servants during the pandemic.
