English abstract
Studies the patterns of the publishing papers in journals by Indian space technologists and their use and citation. Calculates Pearson correlation coefficient to find out the correlation and to test the null hypothesis that there is no correlation among publishing in, citing from and use of journals by a defined set of researchers. A slight positive correlation between citing from and publishing in journals is indicated by the study. Concludes that a more tightly controlled study with a larger and homogeneous sample might result in a better correlation.
