Dear RG experts,
How can a researcher self achieve his research papers.
Thank you
Olutosin
Interesting . What do you mean exactly, is not clear....
Dear Olutosin,
I'm not sure if I understood your question fully...
Self-achievement, is in my personal view, the opposite of team-work...
I wonder how one should manage through modern scientific work without collaboration or solid team-work.
Nevertheless, in a scientific paper, there usually is a figure of the "corresponding author", who may not be the first author, and takes credit and the responsibility for the written text and published results, in name of the team.
Big apology to everyone, I am very sorry, it was a wrong use of word "achieve" it was actually "archive". "How can a researcher self archive his research papers?"
Thanks

Hi there,
What is mean the self achieve is you mean the work and write the scientific papers. Ok, you can that if you have a good practical experience in your work field.
The RG didn't give room for question editing again. The word is not achieve but archive. Sorry for the wrong use of word. Thank you
By the availability of resources, equipment, and good study environment, you can do your research papers by your own. It is advised for postgraduate students to self achieved their research papers. But in case you are a lecturer or researcher in an institution, it better to collaborate with a research team such as students, colleagues in order to achieve more research papers within shorter time.
Thank you Dr. Hadeel Saleh Haj Aliwi for your contribution. The word is achieve and not achieve. I am sorry for that. Thank yo also Dr. Dibakar Pal for your valuable contribution.
Dear Olutosin,
In case of doing research papers for many projects, it is better to include research papers (from oldest to newest) to their belonged project. This way will help you to access any of your papers easily.
Thank you for this helpful contribution Dr. Hadeel Saleh Haj Aliwi.

Very sorry for the wrong use of word. It is self archive not self achieve. Thank you.
Hi folks, s-archieving means the uploading of your publication on a site which allows you to do so and then makes the content available 'freely,' on the internet. There are sevearal providers (res-gate included), probably ssrn and bepress amongst de leading ones in social sciences (ssrn is expanding the fields after the merger with elsevier). But you have to be careful on what you upload, nowadays there is a war between the publishers (who make an awful lot of money using the articles) and the no so free websites which allow for self-archieiving. In order not to be caught into this war, check it out your contract with the publisher and verify what you can and can't do. Usually, you are allowed to upload a pre-published copy of your manuscript, but not always, so it is good to check
Thank you so much for this helpful contribution on this discussion. I really appreciate your input on this question.

Oh..now it's clear. That's the best policy provided you have PDFs available with you in order to expand the profile of your published papers...
Thank you dear Dr. Anoop for your contribution. Dear Liviu Damsa your welcome.

I think your question related to (Self-Determination Theory)
Self-determination theory is a theory of motivation which posits that humans continually and actively seek challenges and new experiences to and develop and master. Within education, the theory considers that students are motivated to achieve different objectives. When a behavior is self-determined, the individual determines that the locus of control is internal to the self, whereas when the behavior is controlled, the locus of control is external to self. The important distinction between the internal or external determinants is not in whether the behaviors are motivated or intentional, but in their internal regulatory processes and how the internal regulatory processes drive external behaviors (Deci, Vallerand, Pelletier, & Ryan, 1991).
Your scientific self-archiving is always done by many websites like research gate, Google scholar, and Scopus. These web sites give you a well archiving your researches, I always depends on them for making a collection of my papers
Regards
Thank you dear Ali H. Abbar for your valuable contribution to this discussion.
