Graphic files of figures (.jpg) must be submitted as separate files with a resolution of at least 600 dpi. If the figures contain textual elements, these must be provided separately in a Microsoft Word file (.docx).
Figures in Microsoft Word are permitted only as embedded objects. All letter and numerical designations used in the figures must be explained in the main text, usually in close proximity to the corresponding figure. Figure captions should begin with the abbreviation “Fig.” Followed by the figure number and title; the caption should be placed below the figure. When referencing to Figure 1 in the text, use the format “Fig.1”. Figures should be center-aligned within the paragraph.
The figure and its caption should be placed inside a table, after which the table borders should be removed.
Tables are considered part of the main text and should not be submitted as graphical objects. Tables should have concise headings, and the units of measurement for all presented quantities must be indicated. Empty cells in the table are not permitted. When creating tables, follow the example provided in the article template.
References
AUTOMATIC NUMBERING OF THE REFERENCE LIST IS NOT PERMITTED.
The heading “References” should be centered and set in bold. Authors are requested to provide active DOI identifier for all sources where available.

The total number of references should be at least 10, of which at least 5 must have been published not earlier than 2000. Particular attention should be given to recent English-language publications, especially those indexed in Web of Science (WoS) and/or Scopus.
For the reproduction of Ukrainian proper names in English, transliteration should be used. Names of organizations and institutions that are not translated into English should also be transliterated. The transliteration of authors' surnames must follow the rules established by the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine №55 of January 27, 2010, “On the Regulation of Transliteration of the Ukrainian Alphabet in Latin Script”, taking into account the language of the original source. The reference list must be formatted in accordance with the international bibliographic standard APA (6th edition).
