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 05 September 2018.
All research outputs
#14,512,111
of 24,350,163 outputs
Outputs from BMC Public Health
#10,337
of 16,069 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#97,212
of 174,726 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Public Health
#166
of 295 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,350,163 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 16,069 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 14.4. This one is in the 33rd percentile – i.e., 33% 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 174,726 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 295 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
