| Abstract |
The identification and exploration of moderators of health department accreditation remain limited by current dichotomous conceptualizations of pursuit. A 2015 survey measured Indiana local health department (LHD) accreditation pursuit and progress, classifying respondents by progress evidence. Covariates included attitudes about the future impact of accreditation on funding and performance, health department size, geography, health outcome ranking, and quality improvement (QI) programing. Four classifications of accreditation pursuit emerged and were found to have greater association with covariates than standard dichotomous measures. "Active Pursuit" was associated with formal QI programing and a belief that accreditation will impact future funding and performance. "Intent Only" was associated with no QI programing and no completion of accreditation prerequisites. "Discontinued" was associated with the belief that accreditation will not impact future performance. "Not Pursuing" was associated with no interest or plan to complete prerequisites and reported belief that accreditation will not impact future health department funding or performance. More granular characterizations of accreditation pursuit may improve understanding of influential factors. This measurement framework should be validated in studies of LHDs in other states. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. 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 17 February 2016.
All research outputs
#14,249,851
of 22,849,304 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Public Health
#3,551
of 9,912 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#156,272
of 297,534 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Public Health
#44
of 72 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,849,304 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 9,912 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.0. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 60% 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 297,534 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 72 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
