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
The goals of this study were to test the measurement invariance of the Structured Assessment of Violence Risk in Youth (SAVRY) across sex and to assess whether the same items on the SAVRY influenced practitioners’ judgments about the risk for boys and girls separately. Using administrative data from 292 adjudicated juvenile offenders placed in state custody, we found that the internal structure of risk was invariant across sex. We also found both similarities and differences in the factors used to make judgments about risk across boys and girls. Our results provide support for the use of the SAVRY for boys and girls and supplement previous research examining the predictive validity of the SAVRY, the structured professional judgment framework for juvenile justice risk assessment, and the utility of the SAVRY across gender groups.
