Abstract
Relevance. Unlike foreign dissertations, Russian dissertation research has a multi-level scientific expertise and a high level of evidence. Since 2022, a nomenclature of scientific specialties with new codes has been introduced; therefore, there is a need to study an array of dissertations with codes of specialties according to the previous nomenclature since 2010. Intention – Analysis of domestic abstracts of dissertations on psychotherapy published in 2010– 2021 and indexed in the Russian State Library (RSL). Methodology. The object of research was an RSL catalog “Author’s abstracts of dissertations”. The search mode made it possible to identify 238 abstracts of dissertations on psychotherapy and psychological correction published in 2010–2021. Results and Discussion. Polynomial trend for dissertation abstracts showed a decrease with a very high determination coefficient (R 2 = 0.93). Annual numbers of dissertation abstracts averaged 20 ± 4, including 17 ± 3 and 3 ± 0.4 candidate and doctoral abstracts, respectively. Within the array, candidate and doctoral abstracts accounted for 86.4 % and 13.6 %, respectively; specialties were as follows: medical (47.6 %), psychological (44.5 %), biological (1.7 %), pedagogical (4.2 %), other sciences (2 %). Over time, candidate theses in medicine and psychology slightly decreased, while shares of doctoral theses in medicine and other sciences increased. Shares of doctoral theses in psychology over time resemble an inverted U-curve. Among all the dissertations, 83.6 % and 16.4 % were devoted to one and two specialties, respectively. About 53.4 % of degree applicants submitted their theses to dissertation councils without psychotherapy and psychological correction research in their specialties. Therefore, public testing of such theses was impeded. Conclusion. The created array of abstracts of dissertations on psychotherapy and psychological correction will allow degree applicants to improve the information support of their work. Leading experts in psychotherapy and psychological correction should be more widely involved in the work of dissertation councils for adequate discussion on the research problems.
