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 12 April 2023.
All research outputs
#1,842,956
of 23,572,442 outputs
Outputs from PLOS ONE
#23,421
of 202,072 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#9,231
of 169,969 outputs
Outputs of similar age from PLOS ONE
#107
of 662 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,572,442 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 169,969 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 662 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% of its contemporaries.
