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 28 September 2012.
All research outputs
#6,053,883
of 27,630,964 outputs
Outputs from American Journal of Public Health
#6,308
of 13,115 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#27,238
of 181,085 outputs
Outputs of similar age from American Journal of Public Health
#39
of 64 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 27,630,964 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 13,115 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 38.2. This one is in the 45th percentile – i.e., 45% 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 181,085 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 64 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 28th percentile – i.e., 28% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
