Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 12. 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 13 February 2021.
All research outputs
#3,063,436
of 25,345,468 outputs
Outputs from PLOS ONE
#37,896
of 219,864 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#15,461
of 175,616 outputs
Outputs of similar age from PLOS ONE
#141
of 629 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,345,468 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 87th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 219,864 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 15.7. This one has done well, scoring higher than 82% 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 175,616 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 91% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 629 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.
