This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. 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 06 November 2015.
All research outputs
#12,359,716
of 34,410,798 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Manipulative & Physiological Therapeutics
#671
of 1,500 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#99,328
of 260,777 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Manipulative & Physiological Therapeutics
#11
of 23 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,410,798 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,500 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 9.5. This one is in the 46th percentile – i.e., 46% 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 260,777 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 23 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 52% of its contemporaries.
