This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. 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 20 April 2015.
All research outputs
#17,377,327
of 25,501,527 outputs
Outputs from Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Mental Health
#600
of 785 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#172,684
of 252,637 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Mental Health
#7
of 8 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,501,527 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 785 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 11.1. This one is in the 17th percentile – i.e., 17% 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 252,637 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 8 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
