Outputs from The Conversation
#158,233
of 208,217 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#22,534
of 360,953 outputs
Outputs of similar age from The Conversation
#3,618
of 5,715 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 33,130,212 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 93rd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 208,217 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 99.0. This one is in the 23rd percentile – i.e., 23% 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 360,953 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 93% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 5,715 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
