Are you a researcher in terms of ResearchGate (RG)?
At least there are two meanings if you like to be a RG researcher:
A: A researcher is a person with research publications. RG shows it as 1. research items, 2 reads of the publications, 3. citations of researcher's publications. This kind of researcher is same as what we know normally. Note that I have an example, one has very high number of reads with zero citation, then this researcher receives a very low RG score.
B: A researcher is a person who likes to ask questions. RG shows it as ask a question and answer a question. Note that one has answered a significant number of questions, one can receive a very high RG scores, eg. 300, more than a searcher with many publications and high citations. This reflects that frequent engagements with RG receive a higher RG score, even if one is a research beginner. One can receive a very high RG score because one has been honored as a very promising researcher, successful researcher. like Albert Einstein. Therefore, the minimum standard you like to be a research in terms of RG, you should ask question, answer a question at RG.
