Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 13. 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 March 2021.
All research outputs
#2,484,995
of 23,983,367 outputs
Outputs from PLOS ONE
#31,068
of 204,823 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#15,939
of 166,321 outputs
Outputs of similar age from PLOS ONE
#517
of 3,998 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,983,367 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 89th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 204,823 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 15.5. This one has done well, scoring higher than 84% 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 166,321 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 90% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 3,998 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% of its contemporaries.
