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.

Findings from University of London Advance Knowledge in Mental Health Diseases and Conditions (The Effects of Social Identity Incompatibility on Student Mental Health)
2025 JAN 03 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Mental Health News Daily -- Investigators publish new report on mental health diseases
Article Description
Background: Students from ethnic minority backgrounds have been shown to be more vulnerable to developing mental health disorders compared to White British students. They have also been shown to experience greater social identity incompatibility; however, it is not yet clear if this may explain some of the disparities in mental health. The aim of the current study was to investigate the relationship between social identity incompatibility and non-clinical generalised anxiety, depression and academic distress in students from ethnic minority backgrounds compared to White students. Methods: A total of 526 students from City St George’s, University of London, completed the Counselling Centre Assessment of Psychological Symptoms (CCAPS-62) and the student identity scale. Results: Results showed correlations between the measures of mental health and incompatibility across all students. Even though there were no significant group differences in the level of anxiety and depression, we found that the interaction between ethnic group and practical incompatibility predicted academic distress. Conclusions: The results may be specific to the multi-ethnic and cultural nature of this inner London city university, but they highlight the importance of practical incompatibility, in particular, in understanding student mental health across different ethnicities.
