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 06 February 2012.
All research outputs
#8,783,469
of 25,986,827 outputs
Outputs from Brazilian Journal of Biology
#1
of 13 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#38,046
of 106,695 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Brazilian Journal of Biology
#2
of 2 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,986,827 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 1.0. This one scored the same or higher as 12 of them.
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 106,695 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 17th percentile – i.e., 17% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 2 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
