(a) This number represents the total of downloads from our server for each journal since July 31, 2011 when
back issues of this journal were made available online. (b) This number represents the total number of articles
published in this journal since inception. (c) This number is the result of dividing the total number of
downloads by the total number of articles published.

Not included above are downloads from other servers of which there are several. Also not included
are any download data for the time period prior to July 31, 2011 when our journals were first put
online with open access. Hence, the numbers of downloads are understated.

The number of abstract views results from researchers searching through our website, which takes
the researcher to the abstract first before going to the full article. The number of article downloads
is (1) the result of researchers finding an article through a search engine such as Google which
takes them directly to the article or (2) the result of researchers first finding the abstract then going
on to the full article.

Google Scholar shows the number of citations on a per article basis, but only for journals that post
published articles with Google. Hence, their numbers are understated. Thompson Routers (ISI) also
publicizes citation statistics that represent the number of times an article appears in the reference
section of the 1,000 or so most frequently cited academic journals. Open access downloads, Google
Scholar citations, and ISI citations are different ways of measuring the impact of an article.
