Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 8. 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 July 2019.
All research outputs
#4,390,317
of 23,870,022 outputs
Outputs from PLOS ONE
#67,726
of 205,178 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#35,785
of 200,251 outputs
Outputs of similar age from PLOS ONE
#1,172
of 5,331 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,870,022 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 81st percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 205,178 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 15.5. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 66% 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 200,251 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 81% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 5,331 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its contemporaries.
