Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 19. 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 26 June 2024.
All research outputs
#2,015,230
of 26,386,754 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Psychology
#4,132
of 35,230 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#53,740
of 434,154 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Psychology
#130
of 810 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 26,386,754 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 92nd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 35,230 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 13.8. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% 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 434,154 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 810 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% of its contemporaries.
