Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 22 September 2019.
All research outputs
#17,700,438
of 25,837,817 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine
#564
of 791 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#214,633
of 328,180 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine
#13
of 16 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,837,817 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 791 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.5. This one is in the 17th percentile – i.e., 17% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 328,180 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 16 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
