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.

Artifact Description
With the increasing pervasiveness of Information Systems (IS), research on innovative use of IT is gaining momentum. Research shows that intrinsic motivation is a key predictor of innovative use of IT; it is, however, inconclusive as some scholars have not found a significant relationship between users’ intrinsic motivations and their use of utilitarian IS. Organizational support has been found to be a facilitating factor for the relationship between intrinsic motivation and innovative use of IT, a deviating behaviour associated with risk. The complex, emergent, and iterative nature of innovating with IT, however, warrants specific support beyond verbal encouragement for users. This article applies the theory of slack resources to conceptualize the environmental support required for the innovative use of IT. The article also explores the impact of managerial framing by which availability of environmental IS slack resources is communicated to employees on innovation with IT.
