KPI publications in the top 10 most cited in the field of psychology (according to Scopus)

Every year, KPI scientists publish works that are among the top 10 most cited in their fields. And this applies not only to engineering or materials science – our scientists’ research has a global impact in the social sciences and humanities as well.

One example is the publication by Associate Professor Gennady Korzhov (Faculty of Sociology and Law) in the journal Psychology of Religion and Spirituality. It was included in the list of the most cited works in the field of psychology of religion.

What is the strength of this work? The study analyzes how religious

beliefs help people overcome psychological trauma after interpersonal conflicts. The authors showed that positive religious strategies promote growth and well-being, while negative ones increase anxiety and depressive symptoms.

This publication has made a significant contribution to the development of interdisciplinary psychology, as it helps to better understand the universal mechanisms for overcoming life crises in different sociocultural contexts.

Joint publications with the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Kyiv National University, and Sumy State University: how do collaborations affect citation rates?

According to #SciVal, KPI scientists actively collaborate with Ukrainian partners.

The leaders among them are:

• National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine;
• Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv;
• Sumy State University, which also demonstrates the highest FWCI indicator among partners – 1.44. This means that such joint works are cited 44% more often than the average level in the relevant fields.

Why is this important?

• Collaborations increase the visibility and quality of research,
• Provide access to shared research infrastructure and new ideas,
• Increase the chances of publication in high-impact journals.

We sincerely thank all scientific partners of Igor Sikorsky KPI for our joint achievements and look forward to reaching new academic heights!

All-Ukrainian Library Day

On this All-Ukrainian Library Day, we felt in a special way the power of community and the living connection of history that unites generations.

The round table dedicated to the 45th anniversary of the Community Space Library building brought together the people without whom it would not have been built in its current form: those who designed, built, decorated, dreamed, and brought it to life.

Mykhailo Yukhymovych Ilchenko, Chairman of the Academic Council of Igor Sikorsky KPI, addressed the participants with opening remarks. Vitalii Vyacheslavovych Tatarchuk, Head of the Research Department of History of KPI at the Boris Paton State Polytechnic Museum at KPI, recalled the origins of the Library’s history.

Eduard Opanasovich Nazarenko, Vice-Rector of KPI in 1971–1992, who personally oversaw the creation of the new university complex, spoke about how the project was born and how the construction took place.

People’s Artist of Ukraine Volodymyr Ivanovych Pasivenko shared with us what inspired him while working on the monumental panel “Man and Nature.”

Professor Serhii Sydorenko and Oleksii Novikov, Director of the Educational and Scientific Institute of Physics and Technology at KPI, spoke about the involvement of students and university staff in the creation of the Library.

The video message from Olena Volodymyrivna Lykhovodova, daughter of the author and head of the KPI architectural complex project Volodymyr Ivanovych Lykhovodov, was very touching. She talked about her father and his work on the creation of the Library building.

We would like to thank our esteemed speakers, moderators, and everyone who was with us on this day. It was a warm, sincere, and very important day for us.
