Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. 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 September 2012.
All research outputs
#16,200,590
of 27,265,746 outputs
Outputs from American Journal of Hospice and Palliative Medicine®
#954
of 1,827 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#115,207
of 192,242 outputs
Outputs of similar age from American Journal of Hospice and Palliative Medicine®
#14
of 34 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 27,265,746 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 40th percentile – i.e., 40% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,827 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.7. This one is in the 46th percentile – i.e., 46% 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 192,242 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 34 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 58% of its contemporaries.
