Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 166. 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 15 January 2023.
All research outputs
#252,953
of 25,911,277 outputs
Outputs from Nature
#14,282
of 99,058 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#2,253
of 321,525 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nature
#186
of 903 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,911,277 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 99th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 99,058 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 102.9. This one has done well, scoring higher than 85% 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 321,525 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 99% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 903 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 79% of its contemporaries.
