This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. 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 18 October 2019.
All research outputs
#8,121,058
of 27,376,552 outputs
Outputs from Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
#7,933
of 11,837 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#41,960
of 180,235 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
#35
of 57 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 27,376,552 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 69th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 11,837 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 41.0. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% 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 180,235 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 73% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 57 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
