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
This paper presents the results of a geographic study of the first month of the “yellow vests” movement. This grassroots movement was organized at a local level but developed throughout France as soon as the protests began in November 2018. Using new Facebook data related to the movement, we show a strong geographic correlation between online involvement (on Facebook) and offline involvement (the blocked roundabouts). We precisely map the protests in France. Then, using data on roads where speed limits were lowered during the summer of 2018, and on the average commuting distance in French cities, we show that the topic of mobility is an important explanatory factor of the initial growth of the movement.
