| Abstract |
The occurrence of somatic symptoms by expectant fathers, commonly referred to as the couvade syndrome, has been reported to exist in American and European males. The purpose of this study was to describe the incidence of the couvade syndrome in Thai males. Responses provided by 172 expectant Thai fathers indicate that they also experience somatic symptoms during their partner's pregnancy. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 110. 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 14 August 2019.
All research outputs
#379,537
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from International Journal of Nursing Studies
#34
of 2,586 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#49
of 19,663 outputs

#1
of 1 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 98th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,586 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 12.2. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 98% 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 19,663 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 99% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
