of 32,686,267 outputs
Outputs from Animals
#4,492
of 9,300 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#163,872
of 350,730 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Animals
#72
of 174 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 32,686,267 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 9,300 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 13.1. 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 350,730 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 49th percentile – i.e., 49% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 174 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 56% of its contemporaries.
