This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 6. 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 11 February 2009.
All research outputs
#7,262,974
of 33,666,858 outputs
Outputs from Nature
#71,371
of 116,150 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#19,730
of 152,761 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nature
#173
of 340 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 33,666,858 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 74th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 116,150 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 96.1. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% 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 152,761 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 77% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 340 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
