Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. 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 29 May 2024.
All research outputs
#8,433,055
of 26,002,074 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Public Health
#3,466
of 14,524 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#156,403
of 448,549 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Public Health
#209
of 1,122 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 26,002,074 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 67th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 14,524 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.2. This one has done well, scoring higher than 75% 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 448,549 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 64% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,122 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 81% of its contemporaries.
