Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 18. 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 21 October 2022.
All research outputs
#1,814,816
of 23,570,677 outputs
Outputs from PLOS ONE
#23,035
of 202,072 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#11,317
of 202,050 outputs
Outputs of similar age from PLOS ONE
#181
of 1,297 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,570,677 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 92nd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 202,072 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 15.3. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its peers.
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 202,050 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,297 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 86% of its contemporaries.
