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 20 March 2026.
All research outputs
#1,295,783
of 33,148,248 outputs
Outputs from Nature Human Behaviour
#1,175
of 2,354 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#26,497
of 480,520 outputs

#39
of 62 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 33,148,248 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 96th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,354 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 146.4. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 50% 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 480,520 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 94% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 62 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
