Abstract: We use the PLANCK 2018 and the WMAP data to constraint inflation models driven by a scalar field $phi$ in the presence of the non-minimal scalar-curvature mixing term $frac12xiRph{i}^2$. We consider four distinct scalar field potentials $ph{i}^p{e}^{-lambdaphi},(1-ph{i}^p)e^{-lambdaphi},(1-lambdaphi{)}^p$ and $fracalphaph{i}^{2}1+alphaph{i}^2$ to study inflation in the non-minimal gravity theory. We calculate the potential slow-roll parameters and predict the scalar spectral index $n_s$ and the tensor-to-scalar ratio $r$, in the parameters ($lambda,p,alpha$) space of the potentials. We have compared our results with the ones existing in the literature, and this indicates the present status of non-minimal inflation after the release of the PLANCK 2018 data.
