Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. 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 04 June 2014.
All research outputs
#14,861,841
of 22,889,074 outputs
Outputs from arXiv
#323,107
of 939,956 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#198,796
of 352,511 outputs
Outputs of similar age from arXiv
#2,311
of 10,879 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,889,074 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 33rd percentile – i.e., 33% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 939,956 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.9. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 60% 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 352,511 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 40th percentile – i.e., 40% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 10,879 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 75% of its contemporaries.
