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 23 November 2013.
All research outputs
#14,121,434
of 25,122,155 outputs
Outputs from arXiv
#191,783
of 1,027,399 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#174,163
of 364,286 outputs
Outputs of similar age from arXiv
#1,331
of 11,486 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,122,155 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,027,399 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.1. This one has done well, scoring higher than 81% 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 364,286 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 51% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 11,486 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its contemporaries.
