However, I am afraid that in your case the algorithm is much more dynamic one, also. And the proportions will change monday. It may occur that you will be able to justify the changes?
Dear Dr. Ali Alhayany, thank you once more for sharing your last week RG Score level
> RG Score 5.98
I hope, that we can get some important data of this, as the actual one is 0.11 higher, and that means 1.8% increase. Therefore, as I said previously, the last week breakdown
> Breakdown: 10.80% Publications 17.38% Questions 71.32% Answers 0.50% Followers
dynamically changed in such a way that only Answers part increased. So we can assess how many Recommendations were needed in your case for this specific RG Score 0.11 increase.
In a similar way, step by step, we likely may assess the RG algorithm. So, could You be so kind to share with us an information, how many Recommendations was needed for 0.01 RG Score increase in your case, this week, dear Dr. Ali Alhaynay?
Dear Dr. Ali Alhayany, As you did not respond and it would be a pity of such clear occassion, I'd checked the number of your last week Recommendations [recs]. It occurs equal to ca.50. It makes 0.0022 RG Score for 1 rec or 4.(54) rec for 0.01 RG Score in your case. It means that RG "pays"likely at least 0.01 RG Score for 5 recs for your Answers. It also could mean that you need more than 500 recs for Answers only, now, to earn 1 full RG Score. Am I right? It is interesting how much RG "pays" for Questions recs? Is there anybody here, who got this week recs only for her Questions?
Dear Barbara,
According to RG, RG score is calculated how do you interact with others
For example your comments to others postings, your postings, asking questions, sharing research papers, conference papers etc
The more you interact with RG tools, the more increase in your score
RG has no any academic signifinace, so some times it is just feeling of waste of time
But, if some times it will help to increase your academic excellence from the interaction with scholars of your field.
