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.

Conference Paper Description
Most plastic bags in our society contain a warning about the suffocation hazard, yet the U.S,. Consumer Product Safety Commission still receives approximately 24 reports annually describing deaths of children who suffocated due to plastic bags.This study examined three of the warning features on plastic bags: (1) border versus no border, (2) position of the signal word relative to the text, (3) all capital letters versus sentence case. Ratings provided by more than fifty students indicated highly significant effects of the border on noticeability, and position and letter case on reading likelihood. Strongest effects were from presence of a border and positioning the signal word centered over the text message.
