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
Human visual perception and many visual system neurons adapt to the luminance and contrast of the stimulus. Here we describe a form of contrast adaptation that occurs in the retina. This adaptation had a local scale smaller than the dendritic or receptive fields of single ganglion cells and was insensitive to pharmacological manipulation of amacrine cell function. These results implicate the bipolar cell pathway as a site of contrast adaptation. The time required for contrast adaptation varied with stimulus size, ranging from approximately 100 ms for the smallest stimuli, to seconds for stimuli the size of the receptive field. The differing scales and time courses of these effects suggest that multiple types of contrast adaptation are used in viewing natural scenes.
