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.

Lecture / Presentation Description
The relationship between academia and activism has been a primary concern of the work of the Appalachian Studies Association since its founding. This roundtable will examine this tension through a dialogue with academic researchers, community activists, and legal advocates. Participants will explore how academic research in applied and social sciences can further grassroots and policy change in the region. What are the barriers, challenges and incentives to cultivating this kind of research? How can researchers and institutions partner with organizers to examine urgent regional issues? What political and academic pressures inhibit this kind of work?
