Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 9. 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 19 August 2022.
All research outputs
#4,045,751
of 24,554,073 outputs
Outputs from International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity
#1,209
of 2,055 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#38,407
of 228,731 outputs
Outputs of similar age from International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity
#5
of 22 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,554,073 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 83rd percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,055 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 29.0. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
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 228,731 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 83% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 22 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 81% of its contemporaries.
