Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 29. 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 01 January 2023.
All research outputs
#1,245,635
of 24,176,645 outputs
Outputs from PLOS ONE
#16,116
of 207,889 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#4,146
of 97,346 outputs
Outputs of similar age from PLOS ONE
#75
of 679 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,176,645 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 94th percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 207,889 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 15.6. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 92% 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 97,346 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 95% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 679 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 89% of its contemporaries.
