Annotation:

The article presents an analytical review of dissertation research in the field of physical education and sports submitted for consideration to the expert council of the Higher Attestation Commission of the Russian Federation on pedagogy and psychology in 2024.

The purpose of the research is to summarize the results of the examination of dissertation research in the field of physical education and sports in 2024.

Methods and organization of the research. The study was conducted in December 2024 and January 2025. General logical methods of theoretical research were used: analysis, generalization, synthesis, abstraction, systematization.

Research results and their discussion. The analysis covers the number, focus, subject matter, quality of dissertations in the field of physical education and sports, the reasons for their implementation, data on the authors, organization of preparation, implementation and defense. The characteristics of the shortcomings of dissertations defended in 2024 are presented in a comprehensive manner for the specialties under consideration and supplemented with examples of failures illustrating the identified negative trends in the works.

Conclusion. The overall increase by one and a half times in the number of dissertation studies in the field of physical education and sports compared to 2023 was revealed, which indicates a positive trend in the restructuring of the work of dissertation councils under the new nomenclature of scientific specialties and the formation of teams of scientists working within the framework of the relevant issues. The shortcomings identified in the works mainly concern the research methodology, aspects of novelty, logic of constructing the evidence base and terminology.
