Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. 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 12 January 2023.
All research outputs
#7,734,518
of 23,524,722 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine
#330
of 749 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#49,827
of 172,597 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine
#6
of 10 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,524,722 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 749 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.8. This one is in the 45th percentile – i.e., 45% 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 172,597 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 10 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 4 of them.
