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 05 April 2022.
All research outputs
#3,054,680
of 23,479,361 outputs
Outputs from Science
#32,749
of 78,582 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#12,180
of 163,452 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Science
#135
of 308 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,479,361 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 86th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 78,582 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 63.3. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 57% 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 163,452 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 91% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 308 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.
