Truly, researchgate is motivation, as our fellow researchers appreciate our work and our work is exposed to global audience, and it is pleasure to see that it is beneficial for many.
Research Gate helps in that I can use it as a search engine for revi of literature. It also has tools to guide early career researchers through the maze of complex research world.
It is increadingl becoming a distraction because of some irrelevant content.
Interaction within the Research Gate is important and is an incentive for many researchers. Each comment and notices is an evaluation and value added to the research, studies and questions that represent most of our activities here.
Quality science networking is deep and focused . I don't think there will ever be a particularly useful network for scientists; if I'm wrong about this, it will look nothing like ResearchGate.
Yes, it motivates! Because transparency is the main characteristic feature of RG. As contrasted to RG, in journals even "deep and focused" articles may be rejected due to subjective opinion of reviewer or even under-the-carpet machinations
Research gate is a source of ongoing motivation for me to expand my research network and share my research with RG colleagues. It also helps in locating full text research articles that cannot obtain elsewhere.
RG Helps to obtain information,, for me the real motivation source is my research interests and other phenomena in my field that motivates me to research these phenomena before others.
Yes off course researchgate motivate us and extend research. This is the best platform or researcher to exchanges the ideas to each other and also take helps to others if facing problems. It also help us what the new trend of research going on.
Of course, yes! I saw a lot of interesting publications. We can talk with researchers and even recruit students. RG looks like a social network for researchers. So it's more interactive and interesting.
Yes, Research Gate motivates me to extend research. It creates a positive competition and lifelong opportunity to learn from top notch academics. It gives me courage to interact with top professor. I believe it provides the opportunity to young researcher to learn by doing mistake.
My answer to this interesting question is YES and YES. Research Gate certainly motivates the Academicians,Scientists and Researchers to do good research work and upload their findings to increase their RG scores.The published papers on Research Gate has proved highly beneficial to many budding Scientists. I am of the opinion that Research Gate is a wonderful plate form for the Researchers to exchanges their views/ ideas to each other, and also to know the new trend of research in a particular field going on in the world. Research Gate is working like a social network for the academicians.
My hearty congratulations to the Founder of Research Gate .
As the RG got access to important researches and researchers. Healing questions through questions and answers, helping to heal questions and assist other researchers.
