| Abstract |
Access to emergency contraception (EC) is an important option for women wanting to prevent an unintended pregnancy. In California, emergency rooms (ERs) are required to provide survivors of sexual assault with information about and access to EC. This study assessed the likelihood that a woman calling a Catholic hospital in California to inquire about EC could access the medication. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 21. 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 24 April 2018.
All research outputs
#1,800,309
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from Women's Health Issues
#189
of 1,114 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#2,703
of 67,855 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Women's Health Issues
#1
of 5 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 92nd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,114 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 20.6. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% 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 67,855 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 96% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 5 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
