This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 18. 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 08 April 2025.
All research outputs
#2,644,721
of 34,560,573 outputs
Outputs from Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
#4,548
of 12,434 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#31,158
of 361,725 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
#44
of 114 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,560,573 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 92nd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 12,434 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 43.4. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 63% 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 361,725 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 91% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 114 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 61% of its contemporaries.
