How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

The strategies of argumentative discourse used by politicians in Kazakhstan were subject to analysis, with an emphasis on their characteristics and impact. The article provides analysis for argumentation and persuasive speech in the politics of Kazakhstan amongst open-source texts of speeches of Kazakhstani political figures. There is multilingualism in Kazakhstani society and political discourse, based on which the interdependence and transmission of arguments and persuasion of people are presented taking into account ethno-cultural and linguistic characteristics.
