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
A law has been passed by the Georgia Legislature that would allow judges to confer stricter sentences on juvenile offenders. Amy's Law, named for an 8-year-old Georgia girl allegedly killed by another child, is part of a nationwide trend in stiffer punishments for juveniles, which child law expert Anne P. Dupre said was in response to overwhelming public opinion that crimes such as these have been more frequent in recent years. To read the full story, see the Los Angeles Times. The title is "When a child says he's a killer." It was published on 4/16/06, and the author is Jenny Jarvie.
