Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 12. 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 02 July 2025.
All research outputs
#3,391,613
of 28,142,891 outputs
Outputs from PLOS ONE
#39,593
of 244,305 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#68,156
of 444,260 outputs
Outputs of similar age from PLOS ONE
#579
of 2,727 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 28,142,891 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 87th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 244,305 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 15.9. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% 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 444,260 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 84% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 2,727 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 78% of its contemporaries.
