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
Transit-oriented development (TOD) has become a popular planning concept due to the array of social, environmental, and economic benefits it may offer to urban areas. However, social equity advocates and academics have raised concerns over transit-induced gentrification (TIG) caused by TOD, arguing that economic gains are prioritized over ensuring accessibility and inclusivity for all people at these developments. Due to varying understandings of gentrification and unique local conditions, the existing literature has produced varying conclusions on how TOD affects communities at different scales. This study investigates how TOD has impacted neighborhoods in Atlanta, GA, using MARTA’s Edgewood/Candler Park station TOD as a case study. By combining document analysis, conventional quantitative analysis of census data, and qualitative mapping of experiences of community members, this research identifies a mix of positive and negative impacts of TOD that are largely dependent on the local context, project scope, and needs of individual community members.
