The status of a vertex u is defined as the sum of the distances between u and all other vertices of a graph G. In this paper we have defined the first and second status connectivity indices of a graph G as and respectively, where E(G) denotes the edge set of G. Status connectivity indices of certain graphs are computed. Also the bounds for the status connectivity indices are determined. Further linear regression analysis of the distance based indices with the boiling points of benzenoid hydrocarbons is carried out. The linear model, based on the status index, is better than the models corresponding to the other distance based indices.
