This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. 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 23 June 2026.
All research outputs
#9,680,988
of 34,581,411 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health (1978)
#2,779
of 5,096 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#66,706
of 359,616 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health (1978)
#10
of 31 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,581,411 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 70th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,096 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 27.4. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% 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 359,616 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 79% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 31 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 6th percentile – i.e., 6% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
