Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. 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 09 February 2024.
All research outputs
#7,587,538
of 24,401,594 outputs
Outputs from International Journal of Theoretical Physics
#103
of 1,932 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#19,674
of 97,575 outputs
Outputs of similar age from International Journal of Theoretical Physics
#2
of 6 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,401,594 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 68th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,932 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 1.7. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% of its peers.
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 97,575 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 79% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 6 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 4 of them.
