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
College binge drinking has contributed to an increasing health concern (Kypri & Langley, 2003). This study examines whether or not college students overestimate their peers drinking behaviors and whether or not the students retain the information provided in a Health PRC's presentation aimed for educating students' about alcohol. Professors at Minnesota State University-Mankato sent in a request for a Health PRC's presentation in the classroom. Students enrolled in class are presented with a survey before a Health PRC's presentation and then approximately one week later complete a post-survey. Previous research has found that college students who believe their peers consume more alcohol are more likely to follow those perceived drinking norms (Perkins & Berkowitz, 1986). It is predicted that college students' misperceptions of college drinking behavior will become more accurate after the Health PRC's presentation focusing on reducing risky behaviors related to alcohol.
