It depends on my weekly schedule but when I usually find my favorite subjects and issues take 1 up to 2 hours. I really learned a lot from my dear colleagues and friends in Research gate gratefully

I think that it can't be time bound. Research is a passion

for us .

Dear Jaydip Datta -

Absolutely!

However, have you ever tried to track your time here or on any other social media platform?

Which platform takes the most of your time?

Your attempt is appreciated .

Actual av time for me around

100 hrs / month .

Jaydip Datta thank you for your contribution!

1-2 hrs.

Dear Khalid Al-Salhie thank you for your answer!

It depends on my weekly schedule but when I usually find my favorite subjects and issues take 1 up to 2 hours. I really learned a lot from my dear colleagues and friends in Research gate gratefully

1.5 h each on Mon, Tue, Thu and 1.0 h each on Wed, Fri, Sat, none on Sunday. I answer 30-40 questions each week.

How when Usually half an hour - an hour. When there is great interest, I can sit for 2-3 hours a day

One hour or less usually, but sometines I get stuck with sone interesting papers or discussion for quite long..

I cannot track the time spent on research gate. I use it when ever i need to

There is no time bound for me.

Daily for few minutes mostly.

About 10-15 mins.

Dear Parisa Ziarati thank you very much for your contribution!

Anytime I am free and have nothing doing I spend my time on RG to read research publications in my area of expertise to learn more. Education has no end.

Dear Omar Al-Khashman

Dear @Fares F. Fares thank you for your answer!

Dear Mohammad Mukhit Kazi thank you for answer!

Dear Boshra A Arnout thank you for your answer!

Dear Lord Famiyeh thank you very much for your contribution!

I agree that we can never stop learning :)

The time I spend on browsing and using specific resources of scientific knowledge is correlated with the current needs of scientific work, including conducting research and publishing their results. Depending on the needs, it is a time of several minutes or a slightly larger time range. I do not keep a detailed list on this matter. In my opinion, part of the time devoted to searching for scientific publications could be significantly reduced if the Research Gate portal offered advanced search based on a multi-criteria search algorithm.

Best wishes

I haven't reached an hour yet (and I don't connect every day).

Total about 2-3 hours per day.

I usually spend time on RG only at weekends.

There is nothing like mendatory time-limit.

Time on RG is speent as per need and interest.

I love your idea about advanced search here on RG based on a multi-criteria search algorithm.

That would be really helpful :)

Dear Gioacchino de Candia thank you for your answer!

Dear B K Sharma thank you for your significant contribution!

Dear Israel A. C. Noletto thank you very much for your answer!

At leisure time 10-15 min but not every day.

Atleast 8-10 hrs . Now becoming addiction .

30- 45 min

Average 15 minutes

I track RG daily but time depends on availability of interesting scientific information.

I spend haphazardly, not always planned; but RG is very interesting to be knowledgeable in the field of scientific research and updated publications.

It varies!

i spend at least one hour daily

2 hours

Spending time on RG or any other portal does not matter much unless it means providing useful information.

Really it is a time consuming activity, but sometimes we spend time on other things much less productive than entering Researchgate. On this page I update myself with everything that is published in my work theme, and I think it is an important forum for debate on the rights we have to publish in any type of magazine, provided that we meet the most elementary requirements that you must have A scientific work. Who knew the small, but productive group of mycorrhizae of the Institute of Ecology and Systematics of Cuba, before entering Researchgate? How many people, with whom we maintain contacts and esteem a lot, went through our laboratory and are becoming science teachers or doctors? How many mycorrhologists from Cuba and other countries passed or were trained in our modest laboratory? know by this page, then yes, it is a time spent daily, but well spent, welcome then Researchgate

2 hours

I am addicted to scan publications and interactions at RG irrespective of the time spent daily.

I am new may be 1 houres

Time spent is not a rule but depends on utility of new information.

only one houres
