Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 38. 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 03 January 2016.
All research outputs
#975,825
of 23,749,054 outputs
Outputs from British Journal of Sports Medicine
#1,765
of 6,254 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#9,161
of 210,836 outputs
Outputs of similar age from British Journal of Sports Medicine
#30
of 116 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,749,054 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 95th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,254 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 64.7. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 71% 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 210,836 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 95% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 116 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 75% of its contemporaries.
