В статье выявляется психологическая специфика труда информационного типа, отличающая его от объектного и субъектного типов структурно-функциональной организацией деятельности. Актуальность исследования обусловлена противоречием между наличием класса специфических форм профессиональной деятельности, основанных на применении различного рода программных продуктов и телекоммуникационных технологий, включающим специальности информационного типа (программист, IT-специалист, специалист по анализу больших данных, специалист по облачным сервисам, разработчик интеллектуальных систем, оператор банковской сферы, бизнес-аналитик, экономист-кибернетик и др.), и фрагментарностью исследований особенностей психических процессов, свойств, состояний субъектов труда в данных профессиях. Исследования конкретной психологической специфики субъектов труда в профессиях информационного типа до настоящего времени встречаются относительно редко, а их результаты остаются разрозненными. Цель исследования состояла в систематизации и обобщении психологических особенностей субъектов труда в указанных профессиях. Ключевым методом исследования являлся анализ научной литературы по рассмотрению теоретического и эмпирического изучения психических процессов, состояний и свойств субъектов труда в профессиях информационного типа. Доказательную базу исследования составили научные публикации, размещенные в таких русскоязычных базах данных, как Elibrary, электронные ресурсы Российской государственной библиотеки, сайт Высшей аттестационной комиссии, сайты ведущих российских вузов. В результате сравнения, систематизации и обобщения разнородных психологических характеристик представителей профессий информационного типа была описана структурно-функциональная организация деятельности информационного характера и выделены обобщенные психологические особенности субъектов труда в профессиях информационного типа, проявляющиеся в различных сферах психики: когнитивной, потребностно-мотивационной и ценностно-смысловой, коммуникативной, эмоционально-волевой и отвечающей за социальное взаимодействие. Полученные и представленные в статье результаты определяют перспективы и необходимость более широких психологических исследований специфики субъектов труда профессий информационного типа, сфокусированных на выявленных проблемных зонах. The article analyzes unique psychological characterises of information work which make it different from objective and subjective dimensions of work. The relevance of the research is accounted for by the fact that even though there are specific forms of professional activities which involve the application of software products and telecommunication technologies (programmer, IT-specialist, data analyst, cloud infrastructure specialist, intelligent system developer, proof operator, business analyst, cyber economist, etc.), the psychological processes underlying information workers’ performance characteristics are underinvestigated. There is a paucity of research dedicated to the investigation of psychological processes that impact the performance of information workers. Moreover, there is a rather inconsistent set of results. The aim of the article is to systematize and generalize the psychological peculiarities of information workers. The key method of investigation is research analysis, theoretical and empirical investigation of psychological processes underlying information workers’ performance. The article is based on research published in Russian full-text databases, such as eLibrary, electronic resources of the Russian State Library, the site of the Higher Attestation Commission, sites of leading Russian universities. The authors compare, systematize and generalize various psychological characteristics of information workers, they describe the structure and functions of information work, they single out general psychological processes underlying information workers’ cognitive, value-related, motivational, volitional, communicative performance and social interaction. The results of the research open up diverse avenues for further research and underline the necessity to scrutinize the problems related to information workers’ performance.

The purpose of research. Currently, the problem of plagiarism is quite relevant and affects the scientific and educational spheres. Thus, the experts of the Russian State Library have organized special research, and they are issuing a series of articles devoted to that activity. Within the framework of fighting plagiarism and other negative phenomena, it becomes necessary to highlight mostly wide-spread problems of reference-arrangement for research papers, and to outline possible solutions for them. We will consider this issue in the first article of the series.Materials and methods. In order to achieve the aforementioned target the article uses the results of the plagiarism tests for research papers carried out by the Russian State Library with the help of specially designed software “Antiplagiat.RSL”.Results. The common defects of research papers are: inclusion of fictitious sources into the reference list, lack of homogeneity in reference arrangement, inadequate references to the groups of sources, quoting the derivative sources instead of the original one, spreading false information because of blind copying other researchers’ mistakes. Plagiarism tests carried out over scientific texts helped to identify the most frequent incorrect borrowings (overlapping wording of conclusions and generalizations, the same sentences used for describing results and methods, as well as word – for – word reproduced literature reviews). The documents revealed to become sources for such plagiaristic borrowings would often be works of research advisors and other authoritative specialists, candidate dissertation theses close in theme or structure, earlier publications of authors themselves, including those written in co-authorship.Conclusion. Numerous flaws are made by emerging authors due to the lack of knowledge, that is why students’ and post-graduates’ efficient training in work with GOST state standards as well as the quality of educational and methodological literature in research-paper writing would be of use. The article offers ways of improvement for research publication arrangement and specialized software products destined to make reference arrangement automatic.
