2.1. Preparation of article metadata in Russian and in English

Each article should have metadata in two languages (both in Russian and in English), regardless of the language of the text. The alternation of metadata on the cover page of the article depends on the language of the article: if the article is in Russian, first a block of Russian-language metadata is given; if the article is in English, the first is the English-language metadata.

Article Type: Original Paper; Critical Review; Short Communication; Letters, etc.);

UDC (Universal Decimal Classification) Index. The research direction and the subject/s of study should be specified, e.g: UDC: 81`42 +811.111. The index can be found on the Internet: http://teacode.com/online/udc;

DOI (Digital Object Identifier) — digital object identifier (the phrase digital object identifier, CIO) is also used – the standard for designating information provided on the network;

Title of the article - for the titles of the articles, apply the style of writing in capital-lower case letters with the capitalization of their own names, abbreviations, etc. The title of the article should reflect the subject and topic of the article, as well as the main goal (question) posed by the author for disclosing the topic;

It also ensures transparency for those who are responsible for the integrity of the content. Authors listed on an article must meet all of the following criteria: made a significant contribution to the work reported, whether that’s in the conception, study design, execution, acquisition of data, analysis and interpretation, or in all these areas; have drafted or written, or substantially revised or critically reviewed the article; have agreed on the journal to which the article will be submitted; reviewed and agreed on all versions of the article before submission, during revision, the final version accepted for publication, and any significant changes introduced at the proofing stage; agree to take responsibility and be accountable for the contents of the article and to share responsibility to resolve any questions raised about the accuracy or integrity of the published work.

It is undesirable to make large gaps between paragraphs in the summary, as well as the red lines (the abstract should be perceived as a single information block, revealing the content of the article). The abstract of a scientific article should be concise and informative, reflecting the most important research results. The abstract of the article should be completely consistent with the Russian language and be competent from the point of view of the English language, and also include at least 250 words in its meaning and structure (Aim, Matherials and Methods, Results, Conclusions).

2.2. The full article

The full article is structured in accordance with the headings (author's variation is allowed in the subheadings under the heading "Results and discussion"):

Detailing of headings:

  • Introduction
  • The aim of the article
  • A review of the literature
  • Research methods  
  • Results and discussion
  • Conclusion
  • References

2.3. Graphic material

  • every object (a table, scheme, diagram) shouldn't exceed the given size of page, its font shouldn't be less than 12 pt;

  • it is recommended that in Russian language texts signatures, explanations, legends for illustrations (photos, diagrams, etc.), tables should be drawn up in two languages in parallel - in Russian and English.

2.4. The Requirements for References

The Journal  uses the Vancouver style of citing https://rasep.ru/images/materials/vancouver.pdf .

The article should contain no more than 30 sources in the list of references. When reflecting the results of their research, the authors should refer to the experience of Russian and foreign researchers, as reflected in publications included in the International Scientific Databases Russian Science Citation Index, Scopus and Web of Science. Most sources should have a year of publishing not older than 5 years. The analysis of current literature and recent research should not be limited to listing the theoretical information with the indication of their authors. The original article allows quoting no more than 3 works of each author.

In particular:

  • Intra-text bibliographic references are given in square brackets, where reference is made to the ordinal number of the used work in the reference list of literature and page - [40:  77]. If the link includes several used works, they are separated by brackets inside the square brackets. For example: [2: 38; 25: 80].
  • Textual bibliographic references are given after the text of the article under the general heading "Reference ". The references are numbered not alphabetically, but as they are mentioned in the text, regardless of the language in which the work was given;
  • The article may contain subscript bibliographic references (footnotes-notes): indications of archival sources, materials of collections and private collections, legal documents, as well as author's notes and comments. Unlike in-text references cited in square brackets, footnotes are placed at the bottom of the page and are made in computer mode: Insert-link-footnote.
  • In Reference, when referring to a book, it is necessary to specify the publisher. When referring to a multivolume edition, you must specify how many volumes and which volume the link is given. The reference to the periodical is given as follows: author. Article title // Journal title. Year. Tom (vol.). no. Interval of article pages.

REFERENCES  should be in Vancouver format https://rasep.ru/images/materials/vancouver.pdf To describe the release date, volume and release of the periodical and the pages on which the source of the link is published, use the shortened record format (see examples below).

DOI. In all cases where the cited material has a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), it must be indicated at the very end of the bibliographic reference. To check for DOI at the source, visit http://search.crossref.org/ or https://www.citethisforme.com. To get the DOI, you need to enter the name of the source in English into the search box. The latter site, in addition to DOI, automatically generates a correctly formatted bibliographic description of the article in English in the AMA (Vancouver) citation style. The vast majority of foreign journal articles since 2000 and many Russian-language articles (published after 2013) are registered in the CrossRef system and have a unique DOI.

All Internet resources: articles, books, monographs, official publications, magazines, newspapers, patent documents, preprints, audio and video materials, etc., must be provided with electronic links, designed in accordance with the sample.
