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.

Dataset Description
Abstract of associated article: This paper investigates the convergence in per capita energy use of a group of 25 OECD countries over the period 1960–2012. Unlike the previous studies, which mainly used unit root tests, in this study, we construct subsampling confidence intervals to assess the convergence in the per capita energy use. These confidence intervals are more informative than the unit root tests, as they provide us with further information on the degree of persistence of the energy use. Our findings suggest that the per capita energy use in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, and Switzerland has a convergent pattern. However, the per capita energy use in Greece, Luxemburg, and Spain appear to be very persistent. For the rest of the countries, i.e. 12 countries, we see a divergent pattern.
