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
For this study, I investigated the role of individual perception, choice and preference in virtual work environments from the vantage of individual psychological processes and perspectives that determine a person’s interpretation of virtuality. Responses from 534 employees which included 294 respondents from SONA Research Management System, 172 respondents from MTurk, and 68 respondents from friends, family and snowballing were examined using exploratory analysis, hierarchical regression and moderation/mediation analyses. Test results indicated that preference and choice provide a better explanation of virtuality when predicting proactive work behavior thus providing support that virtuality can be considered, for some outcomes, a psychological process and not a physical work environment. Additionally, two new measures of virtuality were developed. The new Perceived Virtuality (PV) measure factored and was found reliable but did not significantly predict the proposed outcomes. The new Virtual Competency (VC) measure factored, was found reliable and significantly predicted organizational commitment and proactive work behavior. Further, Demand Abilities Fit (DA) and Needs Supply Fit (NS) were found to mediate various relationships between the new PV, VC and Traditional Virtuality (TV) measures and the performance outcomes of Turnover Intention, Organizational Commitment, and Proactive Work Behavior.
