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 July 2017.
All research outputs
#5,007,419
of 29,653,920 outputs
Outputs from Nature
#62,430
of 107,862 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#20,479
of 119,365 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nature
#328
of 586 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 29,653,920 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 82nd percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 107,862 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 100.0. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% 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 119,365 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 82% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 586 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
