RECOMMENDATIONS ABSTRACT WRITING

(AUTHOR’S RESUME)

TO THE SCIENTIFIC ARTICLES

 

Articles with maximum concretize ideas in abstract are admitted for publication. On a compositional level an abstract can be created with principle IMRAD (Introduction, Methods (Methodology), Results and Discussion):

Timeliness – rationale. Aim – purpose and objectives of research.

Methods (important issues in research methodology) – findings about when, where, how researchers were carried out; what kind of information was made use of, what types of methods you take into account; who was in your testing group.

Results – main conclusions (specifics), results obtained in experimental studies.

Perspective – information about how available from experiments correlates with conclusion of other scientists, what are research perspectives, concepts of further work, difficulties.  

It is widely the world practice accepted that abstracts writing (in English resume or abstract) not only a structural component of own scientific article and along scientific form that has the aim to put in touch with gist and content of research in the most general terms.

An abstract should consist of important facts of work and should not overplay or have absent information in the main part of publication.

Details that are in the caption should not be repeated in the text of abstract.  Don’t use abbreviation and Type Codes.

You should not write references to the publication number in abstract. 

Method or methodology of work performance should be described if it has a difference in scientific novelty or development has a separate part of work. At the report of documents that describe experiment way you should specify sources of data or processing way.

Results of work you should describe with fine-grained and informative. You should provide main theoretical and experimental results, experimental data, identified relating and regularity.  This case the advantage gets new results and long-term meaning facts, important developments, conclusions that overturn presents theory and also facts that have a practical importance in the author's opinion.

Conclusions are able to contain recommendations, marks, propositions, hypothesis reported in the article.

You should avoid superfluous preliminary like as «an author reviews at the article».  Historical notes withholding a main body of document, the description of publishing research work before and well-known positions don’t point in the abstract.

In the text of abstract you should use syntactic constructions appropriate of language scientific and technical documents and avoid complicated grammatical structure (not use in the scientific English).

The volume of text is determined of the content of publication (the volume of information, scientific value or\ and  practical importance), but it should be not less than 1800 up tacks..

An example of abstract (the Ukrainian language):

The best part of plans for mainstreaming changes that have basis in innovation or stop short of practical realization or provide as little benefit as was planning …….. The mechanism is suggested in the article …, based on the analyze... The investigation are supported by code of practice and  procedures that have series of methods and using of it is allowed to … Methods  may include: ….The result of author’s developing methods … is a offering ….., that in the conceptual basis is oriented on … looking for ways will accelerate a realization.., in the last result it lead …

 

RECOMMENDATIONS AS FOR WRITING OF TEXT

SCIENTIFIC ARTICLE

In accordance with Resolution of the Presidium of the Supreme Certifying Commission of Ukraine from 15.01.2003 y. №7-05/1 «About severization of requirements for professional publication that include in the list of the Supreme Certifying Commission of Ukraine», text of article should be with an indication of the next elements:

- problem statement in general terms and its connection with important scientific or practical activities;

- analysis of latest discoveries and publications where the decision of this problem is founded and author writes about, demerger from unsolved earlier parts of general issue the marked article is dedicated that;

- formulation of the article’s aims (problem definition);

- exposition of the basic research material with the full substantiation available from scientific results;

- conclusions of this research and prospects for the development in this way.

A special aspects of scientific article style

Very often authors who declare an address to the scientific problematics use the publicistic style of exposition. The mixture style is unjustified because the creation of quality intellectual product cannot be associated with a publicism in any form. Publicism and science are two valuable, important for community development, but quite different spheres of intellectual self-expression. Thus, beginning from the stage of understanding information collection and ending the forms of exposition of those conceptions and ideas to that an author reached as a result of research it is necessary clearly and expressly to  focus on accepted scientific standard of arguing level and style of material exposition.

In this case you should remember that the article doesn’t have unsupported thesis and conception; all ideas were in the well-formed and reasonable interrelation; an author strained after maximal objectivity and search of the science truths, devoid of pressure ideology and emotions.

RECOMMENDATIONS  FOR REFERENCES

You should add 2 lists after article:

Reference list (it is an ordinary list of literature) and References (list for international database, you should write Ukrainian\Russian date with the support of transliteration (http://slovnyk.ua/services/translit.ph), and sources are duplicated in English from a list "Reference list"). It is necessary in description of document in Reference List and References to bring in all authors, not abbreviating a list to three, as it is recommended by functional  state standard.

Rules for References transliterated in the Romanic alphabet (Roman alphabet) The correct description of the using sources in the lists of literature (References) is the formula for success of cited publication. It takes into account during the evaluation of authors’ scientific activity, thus, (in chain order) – the activity of organization, region, country.

The quotation of magazine determined the scientific level, authoritativeness, efficiency of editorial staff activity and so on. It says that the most important in bibliographic references are authors’ last names and name of journal. It is necessary in the list of article to include all last names of authors not abbreviating it to three, four and so on.

For the description of the Ukrainian-language and Russian-language articles from magazines we recommend this variant of bibliographic references structure in References:

  • authors’ the surname, first name and patronymic (transliteration);
  • name of article in transliteration and translation
  • name of article in English in square brackets [ ];
  • name of source (transliteration) and translation of the name of source in English[ ];
  • raw data with meaning in English or only digital (the last is depending on the used description standard).
