The list of references should only include works that are cited in the text of the article. The bibliography is arranged in alphabetical order, without numbering. English-language works are placed after works in Kazakh and Russian languages, also in alphabetical order. References to unpublished works, the results of which are used as evidence, are not allowed.

The list of used sources in Kazakh or Russian (depending on the language of the article) is followed by References, i.e. a combination of transliterated (https://translate.google.com/) and English-language parts of the used literature, which is arranged in accordance with the APA style (Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association): (https://apastyle.apa.org/products/publication-manual-7th-edition), (https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines).

This is followed by information about each of the authors (academic title, institutional address, ORCID, e-mail – in Kazakh, Russian, and English languages).
7.	For transparency, we ask that corresponding authors specify contributions to the manuscript using the appropriate CRediT roles. The CRediT taxonomy includes 14 different roles describing the specific contributions of each participant to the scientific results.
Roles: Conceptualization; Data Curation; Formal Analysis; Funding Acquisition; Investigation; Methodology; Project Administration; Resources; Software; Supervision; Validation; Visualization; Roles/Writing – Original Draft; and Writing – Review & Editing.
Note that not all roles may apply to every manuscript, and authors may have contributed with multiple roles.
A description of the contributions of co-authors is provided at the end of the article under the heading “Authors` contributions” after “Information about authors”.
8.	Manuscripts submitted to the editorial office must undergo mandatory Antiplagiat.com (https://antiplagiat.com/) checks, and the originality percentage of the article should be at least 70%. Subsequently, the articles are sent for anonymous double-blind peer review, with a review period of 2-6 months. All reviews of the article are sent to the author. Articles receiving negative reviews are not reconsidered. Revised versions of the articles and the author`s response to the reviewer are sent to the editorial office within the deadlines specified by the editorial board. Articles with positive reviews are submitted to the journal`s editorial board for discussion.
ATTENTION! The editorial board does not enter into discussions with authors about the design of articles, the content of the article and the decision to publish articles.
