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 28 October 2016.
All research outputs
#12,946,234
of 22,849,304 outputs
Outputs from BMC Psychiatry
#2,671
of 4,694 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#57,436
of 68,948 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Psychiatry
#2
of 3 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,849,304 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,694 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 11.9. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% 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 68,948 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 16th percentile – i.e., 16% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 3 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
