Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 21. 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 15 May 2021.
All research outputs
#2,302,697
of 34,378,656 outputs
Outputs from Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
#4,201
of 12,413 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#47,621
of 480,354 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
#87
of 188 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,378,656 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 93rd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 12,413 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 43.3. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 66% 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 480,354 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 90% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 188 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 53% of its contemporaries.
