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
The article discusses the transformations in film censorship and film policy in Japan until the end of World War II. Its first part outlines the general trend of these changes - gradual centralization of film censorship and increased scope of state control over film. The next sections are devoted to film regulations from 1917, 1925 and 1939 and other tools of government influence over cinema in Japan. The main conclusion of the article is that the censorship criteria in each of the regulations discussed were formulated in general terms which could be interpreted in accordance with the immediate interests of the authorities and state bureaucracy.
