This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. 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 25 December 2023.
All research outputs
#7,422,444
of 25,992,468 outputs
Outputs from History of Mechanism and Machine Science
#1
of 1 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#106,597
of 402,374 outputs
Outputs of similar age from History of Mechanism and Machine Science
#1
of 1 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,992,468 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 71st percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.2. This one scored the same or higher as 0 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 402,374 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 73% of its contemporaries.
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
