Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 114. 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 28 July 2025.
All research outputs
#471,037
of 34,590,055 outputs
Outputs from The Conversation
#57,301
of 214,203 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#10,357
of 479,317 outputs
Outputs of similar age from The Conversation
#770
of 1,133 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,590,055 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 98th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 214,203 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 98.8. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 73% 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 479,317 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 97% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,133 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
