This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. 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 23 February 2025.
All research outputs
#7,492,173
of 22,901,818 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology
#1,269
of 2,584 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#137,406
of 415,687 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology
#15
of 19 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,901,818 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,584 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 21.9. This one is in the 4th percentile – i.e., 4% 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 415,687 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 54% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 19 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
