The New Zealand government's goal of achieving a smoke-free society by 2025 reflects growing interest in 'endgame' solutions to tobacco smoking. However, tobacco companies have framed 'endgame' strategies as contrary to individual freedoms and 'choice'; these claims heighten politicians' sensitivity to 'nanny state' allegations and may undermine tobacco control policies. Public support for stronger policies could strengthen political will; however, little is known about how smokers perceive endgame scenarios or the factors underlying their support or opposition to these.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. 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 22 November 2013.
All research outputs
#6,175,603
of 29,073,109 outputs
Outputs from Tobacco Control
#2,249
of 3,688 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#35,811
of 175,358 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Tobacco Control
#9
of 25 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 29,073,109 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 78th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,688 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 36.4. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% 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 175,358 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 79% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 25 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 64% of its contemporaries.
