本文提出了对论文“批判性地看待作为科学声誉衡量标准的ResearchGate分数”的回应。根据作者提出的论点，即ResearchGate评分是不可复制的，并且依赖于期刊影响因子，研究人员对ResearchGate评分进行了小规模的探索性分析，以检查ResearchGate评分与概况指标之间的相关性。期刊影响因子在确定ResearchGate评分中的重要性得到了证实，并对两者之间的关系有了深入的了解。描述了一个显著预测ResearchGate得分的模型。这些发现是根据原论文中概述的三个论点来讨论的，并与学术实践有关。
This paper presents a response to the paper ‘A critical look at the ResearchGate score as a measure of scientific reputation’. Following up on arguments presented by the authors, which argue that the ResearchGate score is irreproducible and dependent upon Journal Impact Factors, a small-scale exploratory analysis of ResearchGate scores was undertaken to examine correlations between ResearchGate score and profile metrics. The importance of the Journal Impact Factor in determining ResearchGate score is confirmed, and insights gained into the relationship. A model which significantly predicts ResearchGate score is described. The findings are discussed in terms of the three arguments outlined in the original paper, and in relation to academic practice.
