| Abstract |
Heterogeneity of disorders, comorbidity across diagnoses, and reification of existing disease classifications are some of the challenges facing psychiatry in the twenty-first century. NIMH's Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) Project seeks to address these issues by defining basic dimensions of function that cut across disorders as traditionally defined and can be studied across multiple units of analysis, from genes to neural circuits to behaviors. The intent is to translate rapid progress in basic genetic, neurobiological, and behavioral research to an improved integrative understanding of psychopathology. In so doing, RDoC seeks to facilitate the development of new and/or optimally targeted treatments for mental disorders. The RDoC project would not have been possible without NIMH's long-term investment in basic research. Without the continuation of basic research, both related and unrelated to current RDoC domains and constructs, it will not be possible to sustain the RDoC effort. This article seeks to outline the relationship between RDoC and NIMH's ongoing support for broad-based basic research, from genetics to behavior. |

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 May 2014.
All research outputs
#15,301,167
of 22,756,196 outputs
Outputs from Mammalian Genome
#929
of 1,126 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#127,674
of 207,348 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Mammalian Genome
#2
of 3 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,756,196 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,126 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.6. This one is in the 13th percentile – i.e., 13% 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 207,348 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 28th percentile – i.e., 28% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 3 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
