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 01 January 2016.
All research outputs
#10,264,607
of 29,818,267 outputs
Outputs from Public Understanding of Science
#758
of 1,196 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#61,750
of 205,464 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Public Understanding of Science
#5
of 7 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 29,818,267 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,196 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 18.0. This one is in the 29th percentile – i.e., 29% 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 205,464 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 7 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.
