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
Stylized facts about financial data comprise skewed and heavy-tailed (log-)returns. Therefore, we revisit previous results on reverse stress testing under elliptical models, and we extend them to the broader class of skew-elliptical models. In the elliptical case, an explicit formula for the solution is provided. In the skew-elliptical case, we characterize the solution in terms of an easy-to-implement numerical optimization problem. As specific examples, we investigate the classes of skew-normal and skew-t models in detail. Since the solutions depend on population parameters, which are often unknown in practice, we also tackle the statistical task of estimating these parameters and provide confidence regions for the most likely scenarios.
