I have noticed that seemingly simple shallow questions attract a lot of following. On the other hand, apparently profound questions hardly get responses and I wonder why that might be so. Of course, I am not suggesting that all questions that rank very high are simple or shallow.  Moreover, I take it that, besides providing space for serious research, researchgate provides a platform where academics can find, connect  and interact with other colleagues on points of mutual interests. So my question is: What are the characteristics of a good question?
