I do not think this is possible, because of their different database.

Unless ResearchGate works independently from Google Scholar - which I don't think it would- this is not possible.

Thanks all

I think no relation between citations in google scholar and citations in RG.

I also think no relationship between citations in google scholar and citations in RG.

Thanks All

Different databases. Many scholars here have higher number of citation on goggle scholar than on RG. Interestingly one of my paper's citations has not been captured by google scholar but has been captured by RG!

RG picked up mine.

Major citation indexing services are:

• Web of Science by Clarivate Analytics (previously the Intellectual Property and Science business of Thomson Reuters)
• Scopus by Elsevier, available online only, which similarly combines subject searching with citation browsing and tracking in the sciences and social sciences.
• CiteSeer
• Google Scholar

ResearchGate is a social networking site and RG score is not a citation impact measure.

I have also observed same. What I can say is that, authors citing your articles should also be on RESEARCHGATE for it to reflect on your profile. I have more than 20 citations on Google Scholar but only 15 are reported on Researchgate.

On the contrary, authors who have not registered on researchgate can have their CONTRIBUTIONS (publications, citations, etc) listed on Researchgate.

Additionally, reads and downloads of your articles can only be recorded by researchgate ONLY WHEN THEY ARE READ ON RESEARCHGATE.

If you want to keep teach of your reads and downloads, send researchgate links to those papers instead of downloading and sending PDF documents of those articles.

i have vice versa problem.

In theory the citations that appear in their works published in Google Scholar, should also appear in Research Gate; although because they are different databases and different "browsers", they probably do not have the same precision in identifying information in such vast Internet data sources.

As far as I know, the situation you are experiencing has also happened to other researchers and of course to me.

interesting question Following

I have both situations: papers cited on RG are not cited on GS, and vice versa..but it often happens that they are a bit late after each other, maybe a couple of weeks. In general GS is better in finding your citations.

Thanks all. Happy New year all

Yusuf....yes. On both. Sorry if I misunderstood.

Maybe , both systems require update. Updating may not be automatic.

I think it will be a good idea if we can link Google Scholar Citation to RG. I have more than 100 citations missed in RG.

RG do not communicate or reference all the journals or websites there are limitations. You could upload those cited articles on RG then citations would be added automaticaly. Regards

google Scholar has a big date base compare with RG and so it captures more work citations

Thanks all for sharing your ideas. Happy New Year all.

I have over 200 articles in GS not captured in RG. I join others clamouring for a way to harmonize both at least with respect to citations. I strongly believe that it is possible. Thanks

Dear Craig Refugio,

In order for these quotes to appear on RG, publications with these citations should also be posted on the RG.

Best wishes

Good question

Good question

THANKS all for your answers.

One problem with Research Gate is when doing a topic search on Google, the date for an article appears as when it was uploaded, not when it was written. Only seeing the article gives you the actual date.

Following!

Sorry I do not know how

To capture these citations , you have to upload the articles citated on RG

GS and RG are not directly connected.

yes you can by adding them to rg

No answer yet about reconciling RG with Google citations . My Google citations are higher than what are shown on RG, even after uploading all cited articles. One scholar and two different planets!

I guess they are two different research platforms and cannot be clubbed.

No idea

No idea

RG and Google Scholar are different platforms but with the same purpose, that is, information networks for researchers with the purpose of socializing, communicating directly their experiments and results, making comparative studies and multicenter international group.

Also, possibility of having the full-text information of the most recent publications on the topics and scientific areas of interest.

Only if the publications have been reported and registered on both platforms, will they be connected; although the readers of both networks may be different and the scientific qualification or evaluation of the published work is not the same; There is no direct weighting between the two networks.

Maybe, names mentioned in comments and recommendations numbering at least 20 is measured as one citation by RG in its own measurement sacle.

They would nned to be uploaded here on RG too

Take the snapshots of your Google Citation page and post them on the RG to keep the record straight.

May be may not be. If you have published in good reputed journals they will be ljnked otherwise they are independent. Ur RG citations will alys be less than google scholar citations.

Follow

My citations from google scholar are here, but, no I do not understand RG either. Honestly, at times it seems random.

Up load the article on RG, then RG may capture the new citations.

They are completely different as my SGC citations are above 300.

I do not think that is possible because the two are separate and not related to each other from all sides

I agree with you

Why are some of my citations not shown?

We regularly import citation data from different sources and do our best to ensure accuracy. However, while citations using standard citation styles are usually extracted accurately on ResearchGate, there are some cases where this can be difficult.

Here are the most common cases where citations may be missing:

• When citations have incomplete metadata (e.g., publication date, journal, abstract)
• When the citing paper is not on ResearchGate
• When full-text PDFs are created by scanning a hard copy, we can't extract citations

If you recently added a publication to ResearchGate and notice that citations are missing, please be patient as this can take some time. Please also note that we aren't able to manually add your citations from other sources, e.g., Google Scholar.

We understand that it's frustrating when citations aren't displayed, so we're always working on new ways to improve how we extract and match citations.

Nice and Informative Answers Dr Foozhan Tahmasebinia

Thank you , Dr Foozhan . In any case citations will remain citations even if these are not imported to RG.

Thank you for your valuable information and suggestions.

Thanks Foozhan Tahmasebinia

As I have commented previously, not always quotes from Google scholar are captured by RG.

But if this is the case, you can publish in Research Gate the appointment of Google Scholar, indicating in the file all the requested data. I have done it by publishing the quotation in the form of "Data" associated with a publication and a project.

It is not enough that your articles are in RG. It's necessary, the articles that cited you to be in RG. Citations are not automatically transferred from Google Scholar.
