Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 18. 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 29 June 2023.
All research outputs
#2,510,715
of 33,834,589 outputs
Outputs from Nature
#50,827
of 116,490 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#3,560
of 76,208 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nature
#91
of 417 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 33,834,589 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 92nd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 116,490 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 96.0. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 56% 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 76,208 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 94% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 417 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 76% of its contemporaries.
