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
As societal participation in emergency management grows, there's a heightened focus on how governments can coordinate with the diverse array of societal actors. Unlike traditional NGOs, hub-type social organizations in China have a unique dual nature, blending administrative and social roles, which facilitates effective communication between government and social forces in emergencies. Using Atlas.ti software, this study analyzes interviews with hub-type social organization personnel, revealing how they foster coordination among social forces through establishing norms and networks. Normatively, these organizations regulate societal actions via processes like review, action guideline creation, and reciprocal expectation setting, ensuring alignment with government efforts. Meanwhile, through material, professional, and local resource networks, they coordinate diverse actors' actions. This research also delves into the organizational foundations necessary for these entities to establish norms and networks and their relation to the types thereof. China's hub-type social organizations' experiences offer valuable insights for governments worldwide seeking sustained collaboration with social forces in emergency management.
