Match the following :
| List I | List II |
|---|---|
| (a) Statistical Bibliography | (i) Allen Pritchard |
| (b) Librametry | (ii) V.V. Nalimov |
| (c) Bibliometrics | (iii) E.W. Hulme |
| (d) Scientometrics | (iv) S.R. Ranganathan |
Answer: D
The correct matching is a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii.
- Statistical bibliography: E.W. Hulme, who used the term in 1923.
- Librametry: S.R. Ranganathan, who proposed it in 1948.
- Bibliometrics: Alan Pritchard, who coined it in 1969 to replace 'statistical bibliography'.
- Scientometrics: V.V. Nalimov, who introduced it in 1969.
Ranganathan and librametry is the anchor and fixes b-iv, leaving two options. The near miss gives bibliometrics to Nalimov and scientometrics to Pritchard, which reverses the last two pairs.
