This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. 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 24 September 2025.
All research outputs
#22,339,323
of 34,399,888 outputs
Outputs from JCOM - Journal of Science Communication
#559
of 816 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#151,002
of 358,884 outputs
Outputs of similar age from JCOM - Journal of Science Communication
#19
of 25 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,399,888 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 33rd percentile – i.e., 33% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 816 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.9. This one is in the 30th percentile – i.e., 30% 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 358,884 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 55% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 25 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 20th percentile – i.e., 20% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
