We discuss a set of ideas related to defining health - using the World Health Organization definition, several debates in the academic literature, and the Meikirch Model of Health. Given the complex and dynamic nature of health, we cannot aim to generate a once-and-for-all agreement on its precise meaning. Instead, let us work to develop a general framework to guide further explorations to identify and measure the complex components and determinants of that elusive aspiration we call health.Journal of Public Health Policy advance online publication, 19 June 2014; doi:10.1057/jphp.2014.26.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. 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 01 December 2023.
All research outputs
#6,447,654
of 33,503,639 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Public Health Policy
#260
of 915 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#52,499
of 271,122 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Public Health Policy
#4
of 13 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 33,503,639 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 79th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 915 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 14.8. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 70% 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 271,122 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 13 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 69% of its contemporaries.
