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
Abstract Socioemotional skills are key determinants of adult life outcomes. Significant changes in economic conditions can affect the formation of such skills, especially at more vulnerable ages. In this paper, we study how a long-lasting drought event is associated with adolescents' accumulation of socioemotional skills. Between 2012 to 2015, the Brazilian semi-arid region was exposed to a long-lasting exogenous drought. Comparing students exposed versus not exposed to the drought in the state of Ceará, we found evidence that the drought episode significantly reduced students’ conscientiousness skills, a skill related to persistence, organization, and focus. We confirmed these results by investigating the facets associated with conscientiousness, socioemotional traits and other related outcomes, such as student aspiration. This paper showed that a steep increase in drought can be correlated with students’ socioemotional skills, especially at sensitive ages of socioemotional formation.
