Abstract:

Pakistan Journal of Science and Industrial Research (PJSIR) had celebrated its sixtieth anniversary in 2017. Inspired by this occasion, this observational study presents a bibliometric review on the quantity of all published materials under the caption of Physical, Biological and Technological Sciences with Short Communications during the period of 1958-2007 in Pakistan. The data of 340 issues of PJSIR was downloaded and collected to tabulate from the website of electronic journal: (http: www.pjsir.org/arc.php) during January-July, 2018. This study expressed that n=4929; 14.4% articles were published in 340 issues of PJSIR during the period of 1958-2007. Total 4417 (1790; 36.3%, 1651; 33.5%, and 976; 19.8%) articles published under the caption of Physical, Biological, and Technology out of 4929 articles. Remaining 512; 10.3% articles were short communications. Maximum articles n=1375; 28% were published in the fourth decade and n=694; 14% articles in the first decade as a minimum. The short communications n=208; 4.2% related to biological science take a position with the slight margin to other disciplines. PJSIR published regularly from 1958 to this day. It is counted a teamwork of the management of Journal and supported by Pakistan Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (PCSIR) Government-owned body. There are few examples in the world to publish a scientific journal which covers three major disciplines of science.
