Technical Communication Practices of Russian and U. S. Aerospace Engineers and Scientists
Abstract
This research was conducted at three comparable aeronautical research facilities: the Central Aero-Hydrodynamic Institute (TsAGI), the NASA Ames Research Center, and the NASA Langley Research Center, using self-administered mail surveys. The instrument used to collect the data had been used previously in several western European countries and Japan and was adapted for use in Russia. Russian-language questionnaires were distributed to 325 researchers at TsAGI. By the established cut-off date, 209 were received, for a completion rate of 64%. English-language questionnaires were also distributed to 558 researchers at the two NASA installations. By the established cut-off date, 340 were received, for a completion rate of 61%. The survey at TsAgI was conducted during April and May of 1992, and the surveys at the NASA centers were conducted during July and August of 1992
