Abstract

Having two eyes instead of just one is advantageous in at least six respects: the danger of blindness is decreased, the visual field is enlarged, stereoscopic depth perception is possible on the basis of binocular disparities, the position of the eyes relative to the head can be computed from the images of both eyes, visual obstacles in front of the horopter perceptually shrink, and the signal-to-noise ratio is increased.

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 22 July 2018.
All research outputs
#7,845,540
of 23,794,258 outputs
Outputs from The Science of Nature
#817
of 2,195 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#3,491
of 12,447 outputs
Outputs of similar age from The Science of Nature
#1
of 3 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,794,258 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 2,195 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 13.5. This one is in the 20th percentile – i.e., 20% 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 12,447 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 8th percentile – i.e., 8% 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. This one has scored higher than all of them
