Abstract

This is the layout specification and template definition for the manuscript of The Encyclopedia Herald of Ukraine. The Abstract should be comprehensible to readers before they have read the article. The abstract describes all key novel findings of the article. For this purpose, summarize the salient points of the article in 200 words or less emphasizing the results of your study.

Keywords

We recommend submitting up to 10 keywords (separated by commas).

INTRODUCTION

The introduction of a research article typically includes a description of the general concept of the study, the problem statement, the justification of relevance, and outlines the contribution of other explorations to the topic.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

Description of the general research design, materials, methods, and procedures used. This information may be part of the introduction if the description of materials and methods does not require a detailed presentation and therefore does not need to be separated into a distinct section.

RESULTS

Articles for the journal are prepared in the format defined by this template. The article title should accurately reflect the research content and be comprehensible to an international audience. The recommended length is no more than 100 characters (including spaces).

If a non-standard font needs to be used, it should be sent to the editorial office as a separate file along with the article.

As evident from the text, the type of quotation marks used is “ ”. In the text, we use the so-called “en dash” (–) for date ranges, pages, etc. (without spaces around it), and the “em dash” (—) is used directly as a dash.

In the text and the reference list, we recommend using only Arabic numerals. A space is placed between the initials of the first and middle names (e.g., V. I. Vernadsky) or only the initials of the first name are given (e.g., V. Vernadsky) — it is important to maintain consistency in the chosen method of presentation. The article length should not exceed 5,000 words (up to 30,000 characters).

The article must adhere to scientific ethics, with proper use of the intellectual achievements of other scholars and appropriate citation of their works. References should be formatted in parentheses as follows: (Andriienko, 1999, p. 55). In this example, the source in the reference list is identified by the author’s surname “Andriienko,” the publication year “1999,” and the page “55” from which the text was borrowed either as a direct quote or paraphrase. If the reference is to multiple sources, they should be separated by semicolons, e.g.: (Borysenko, p. 155; Ilchenko, p. 102). If the author’s last name is mentioned before the quote, it should not be repeated in the parentheses — only the pages should be indicated: As M. Stepanenko asserts, “in multivector ideological ethnospaces, the same realities of reality are interpreted and evaluated differently” (2022, p. 13).

Articles may include illustrations and tables, if necessary. They must be mentioned in the article text with references, for example: “Fig. 1” or “Table 1”. The text reference to tables and illustrations should precede their placement in the article. The quality of illustrations must be high, and each illustration should be submitted separately, not just in the article text. Illustrations should follow a similar format, with the title placed below the illustration:

CONCLUSIONS

Conclusions summarize the main results presented in the article and outline possible directions for future research. It is important to emphasize the correlation between the conclusions and the research objective.

The reference list should include only sources cited in the article text. Sources examined during the research that the author considers recommended on the topic but are not cited in the text should not be included in the reference list (if absolutely necessary, they can be added as footnotes).

In the reference list, items should be arranged alphabetically without numbering. References should be formatted according to the APA style. If a non-English article includes an author-provided English translation, the reference list should include the translated title. Otherwise, provide the original title (for languages using the Latin alphabet) or transliterate the title into Latin script. Additionally, it is recommended to include your own English translation of the article title in square brackets. A similar approach applies to publication titles: if non-English journals, monographs, or collections include English translations of their titles, those translations should be used. If not, transliterate the title into Latin script or use the original title, but do not provide an English translation of the publication title in square brackets. For non-English sources in the reference list, indicate the language of publication in square brackets at the end.
