This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 6. 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 01 January 2014.
All research outputs
#6,008,482
of 27,374,586 outputs
Outputs from Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
#3,593
of 7,341 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#25,786
of 116,050 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
#47
of 62 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 27,374,586 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 74th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 7,341 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 25.5. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% 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 116,050 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 70% 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 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
