What is a Higher Attestation Commission article?
VAK articles are scientific publications approved by the Higher Attestation Commission. Each scientific work submitted for publication or previously published has a number of differences and advantages over other works on a similar topic. First and foremost, writing a VAK article requires following a comprehensive and coherent structure. The text must be relevant to the chosen topic, and the work must be written in a strictly scientific style with a high percentage of uniqueness. Also essential for high-quality research is the use of keywords and rigorous adherence to the desired length of the scientific article. VAK requirements are driven by the clear structuring of information for its complete comprehension. Writing and publishing scientific articles becomes more understandable when specific requirements are clearly visible. Therefore, the main components of a classic, high-quality publication in a VAK journal are presented below.
How to write a VAK article?
For a scientific article to be published, it must consist of:
• title
• research abstracts
• main text
• bibliographies
• keywords
• if necessary, visualization of the material
• information about the author
*All articles for the defense of a candidate's thesis and other possible dissertation research are constructed according to this principle
The correct title is
In the correct title of a scientific article, the applicant for an academic degree indicates his or her full name, the full name of the university or scientific institution where the research was conducted, and the name of the discipline.
How to write an abstract for an article?
A good abstract for an article consists of several parts:
• subject of the research, topic and purpose of the HAC article;
• methods that were used in conducting scientific work;
• research results;
• areas of possible practical application of scientific results;
• conclusion or inference.
The abstract includes the syntax of scientific and technical documentation; the English version of the work uses terms that are typical of specialized texts with reference to lexical constructions specific to the selected topic of the VAK article.
Main text
This part of the scientific article consists of introductory part (research methodology and its application in theoretical and practical aspects of everyday life), data on the progress of scientific work (a comprehensive analysis of the research, based on previous work in the chosen discipline, a full analysis of the results, and a comparison of the obtained data with previous scientific works), conclusions and recommendations (scientific parallel between the introduction and the results, providing detailed conclusions regarding the topic of the article).
Supporting materials
IN bibliographies The author describes all the literature and other materials used in the study. It is preferable to rely on more recent, up-to-date sources, which will make the publication of the VAK article more accessible. This selection of literature does not raise any concerns among experts regarding the validity of the study's results.
For keywords Two main languages are used: English and Russian, scientific constructions in translation should be as close as possible to their meaning in the original.
Material visualization – a mandatory part of the VAK article, all kinds of diagrams, graphs, charts and other images are the main opportunity to combine a large amount of material into a clear and understandable structure.
About the author are located at the very end of the document, and include the full name, position and academic degree, as well as the place of work of the author of the HAC article (data is entered in two languages).
By following a clear structure for your research paper, publishing with the Higher Attestation Commission (HAC) won't seem so difficult. The main thing is to familiarize yourself with the requirements before you begin writing your research.
