Altmetrics
Altmetric Attention Scores are tracked and collated mentions and shares of journal articles and other outputs (such as data sets) across traditional and social media outlets, blogs, public policy documents, patent citations, post-publication peer-review forums, and online reference managers.
Altmetric LLP, who provide the data, collect article-level metrics and the online conversations around articles on Taylor & Francis Online, by tracking scholarly and non-scholarly online indicators to give an indicator of digital impact and reach. “Mentions” that contain links to any version of the same article are picked up and collated. The result is the Altmetric Attention Score.
Altmetrics demonstrate the impact of research beyond academia. These are some of the highest scoring articles published in 2018 and 2019.
