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.

Thesis / Dissertation Description
This study encompasses a period which was probably 'the most significant in American steamship history -- from the hurtling of the GENERAL SLOCUM (1904) to 1925. It is not unusual for a major disaster to touch off a broad investigation into problems not necessarily directly related to the disaster itself. Thus, such studies provide data of interest in a general study; this is why the present paper deals so heavily in events while stressing trends. Because of the range of some of these investigation reports, a problem presents itself as to the proper scope a paper on "fire safety" should have.
