A content analysis of 163 posts under four hashtags (#researchpaper, #scientificarticle, #socialscience, and #pewresearch) revealed that TikTok is indeed being employed as a medium for sharing scientific content, including research results. It is notable that some publications make direct references to scientific articles and monographs, indicating the potential of the platform to bridge the gap between the academic community and a wider audience. However, short videos on TikTok generate more engagement when authors share experiences and tips rather than research results. While TikTok is becoming an important channel for scientific communication, it is mainly used as an additional means and not a replacement for traditional media such as academic journals or new resources like preprint servers. Additionally, no formats or examples of content were identified that could be considered a replacement for traditional methods of communicating scientific information. Further research is necessary to investigate the impact of TikTok on science communication across different disciplines and age groups.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Поскольку все больше ученых используют для обмена научной информацией альтернативные коммуникационные платформы, в том числе видеосервисы (например, TikTok), необходимо изучить потенциал подобных ресурсов для научной коммуникации, особенно с молодой аудиторией. Мы провели контент-анализ 163 постов под четырьмя хэштегами: #researchpaper, #scientificarticle, #socialscience, #pewresearch. Выяснилось, что TikTok действительно используется как площадка для обмена научным контентом, в том числе результатами исследований. Некоторые публикации даже содержат прямые ссылки на научные статьи и монографии, что говорит о потенциале платформы для преодоления разрыва между научным сообществом и широкой аудиторией. В то же время, короткие видео в TikTok вызывают больший интерес, когда авторы делятся личным опытом и советами, а не результатами исследований. Форматы и примеры контента, способные претендовать на замену традиционных способов передачи научной информации, в ходе исследования обнаружены не были. Хотя TikTok возможно использовать в качестве средства научной коммуникации, он все же может быть лишь дополнительным каналом, а не заменой традиционных медиа, таких, как академические журналы или новые онлайн-ресурсы (например, серверы препринтов). Необходимы дальнейшие исследования, чтобы изучить влияние TikTok на научную коммуникацию в рамках различных дисциплин и возрастных групп.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>scientific communication</kwd><kwd>TikTok</kwd><kwd>short videos</kwd><kwd>social media</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>научная коммуникация</kwd><kwd>TikTok</kwd><kwd>короткие видео</kwd><kwd>социальные медиа</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Bolter, J.D.
