Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. 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 10 April 2022.
All research outputs
#7,730,464
of 23,509,982 outputs
Outputs from Evolutionary Ecology
#297
of 719 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#9,626
of 31,912 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Evolutionary Ecology
#2
of 4 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,509,982 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 719 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.4. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% 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 31,912 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 9th percentile – i.e., 9% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 4 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 2 of them.
