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 political agenda in an electoral context has multiple supports on which to be built: besides traditional media, social networks have adopted a leading role in the strategies of the parties. The current research analyzes for 28 days the official Twitter accounts of the two main presidential candidates in Argentina, Peru, Ecuador, Honduras and Chile, during the elections held in Latin America in the 2015-2017 period. The thematic agendas of the candidates and the countries are exposed through the use of a quantitative methodology, content analysis and the use of tools such as Python Twint, NVivo and SPSS, whilst Spearman’s Rho coefficient was applied for the extraction of correlations. In conclusion, the absence of a particular digital agenda in Latin America has been inferred, within a coherent thematic behavior through the left-right axis and the national politics.
