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.

Article Description
Career transitions are common and even expected in today’s society, especially for individuals who are midlife (Crane, O’Hern, & Lawler, 2009, p. 24). Utilizing a case study approach, this project discusses the experiences of four individuals who transitioned from roles as successful practitioners to university faculty members. Their joys and challenges, in addition to the implications of their experiences, are described. Finally, tips on how to successfully move from practitioner to faculty member are offered.
