Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 82. 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 12 September 2026.
All research outputs
#624,319
of 31,831,650 outputs
Outputs from Science
#13,750
of 91,271 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#4,833
of 257,751 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Science
#154
of 893 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 31,831,650 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 98th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 91,271 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 66.1. This one has done well, scoring higher than 84% 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 257,751 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 98% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 893 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 82% of its contemporaries.
