Structural Elements of a Scientific Article
1. Introduction
The introduction addresses the formulation of the scientific problem, its relevance, and its connection to significant scientific and practical tasks in the field of science or industry. It outlines the main objectives that the author aims to achieve, elaborates on the essence and current state of the scientific problem in general terms, its theoretical and/or practical significance, identifies the scientific hypothesis, explains the reasons for undertaking the research, and highlights the relevance and theoretical or practical importance of the study (first paragraph or 5–10 lines).
2. Analysis of Major Research and Publications
This section analyzes the major or most recent (in terms of time) research and publications that the author relies on. It initiates the resolution of the presented problem, provides contemporary perspectives on the problem, discusses difficulties in its development, and highlights previously unresolved issues within the overall problem (0.5–1.5 pages of text with 1.5 line spacing).
3. Formulation of the Article's Objective (Task Setting)
This section presents the main idea of the publication, which differs somewhat from existing views on the problem, complements or deepens already known approaches; it focuses on introducing new scientific facts, conclusions, recommendations, regularities into scientific circulation, or clarifying previously known but insufficiently studied ones.
The objective of the article follows from the formulation of the scientific problem and the analysis of major or most recent research and publications. It should clearly define the ultimate scientific result and indicate the scientific premises on which it is based, as well as how and by what means it is achieved (5–10 lines).
4. Presentation of the Main Research Material and Its Results
This is the main part of the article, where the key points and results of the scientific research are presented. It includes personal ideas, opinions, scientific facts obtained, identified patterns, connections, trends, the experiment algorithm, methodology for obtaining and analyzing factual material, comparison of the obtained results with those of other researchers, the author's personal contribution to the achievement and implementation of the main conclusions, and prospects for further solving the problem in this direction (3–5 pages of text with 1.5 line spacing).
5. Conclusions
The conclusions sequentially, clearly, and logically present the most important results of the research according to the stated objective. These results should contain scientific novelty and have theoretical or practical significance. Additionally, the conclusions briefly describe the prospects for further research on the given topic (0.3 pages of text with 1.5 line spacing).
