$f(R)$ constant-roll inflation in light of the inflationary observations

We work with the inflationary models introduced in the context of $f(R)$ gravity in which the scaleron rolls down with a constant rate from the top of the potential to the minimum point. To present the inflationary paradigm, we consider three interesting $f(R)$ model \textit{i.e.} Starobinsky $R^{2}$, $R^{2p}$ and the logarithmic corrected models. We compare the inflationary parameters of the models with the observations of CMB anisotropies \textit{i.e.} the Planck and Keck/array datasets in order to find the observational constraints on the parameters space of the models and also the predictions of the models. We find that although our $f(R)$ constant-roll models when $\gamma=0$ show observationally acceptable values of $r$, they do not predict favoured values of the spectral index ($n_{s}>1$ for Starobinsky $R^{2}$ and $R^{2p}$ models and $0.996
