| description | The study investigated the citation pattern of agricultural extension researchers in extension journals
over a ten -year period. Seven journals were content analysed for categories of extension
specializations, self citation, infra -and inter -institutional citation. Findings reveal that rural sociology
articles are the most published in extension journals. Self citation is low among extension
researchers while inter -institutional citation is higher than intra- institutional citation. However, infrainstitutional
citation was more predominant during the pre -AESON period. |
