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 01 May 2017.
All research outputs
#4,166,088
of 34,334,425 outputs
Outputs from Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
#5,660
of 12,407 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#55,749
of 352,948 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
#87
of 149 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,334,425 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 12,407 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 43.3. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 54% 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 352,948 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 149 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
