Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

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 04 March 2022.
All research outputs
#16,740,371
of 24,622,191 outputs
Outputs from Epidemiologic Perspectives & Innovations
#28
of 35 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#54,862
of 61,649 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Epidemiologic Perspectives & Innovations
#1
of 1 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,622,191 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 35 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.5. This one scored the same or higher as 7 of them.
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 61,649 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 5th percentile – i.e., 5% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1 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
