Augmented reality technology in learning German as a foreign language: technological and didactic aspects
Authors: Amelina Svitlana M. , Tarasenko Rostyslav O. , Kazhan Yuliya M.
Published: January 2024

This paper explores the application of augmented reality (AR) technology for developing foreign language professional communication skills in learning German. The study involved creating a virtual tour of architectural landmarks in Kyiv related to German architects, with AR elements like QR codes linking to textual, visual and video information and 3D models. The technological and didactic requirements for implementing AR were determined. Students prepared informative materials and tested the tour. The results of the questionnaire confirmed the motivational effect and expanded content from AR. Some difficulties were the dependence on gadgets and software. AR elements facilitated remembering terminology in context. The approach allows combining speciality content and language learning. AR technology can potentially enhance the learning process, but further research on methods is needed.

Authors: Банникова Т.И. , Лебедева Е.А. , Резник В.А.
Published: January 2024

Плазмаферез – это современный вид эфферентной терапии, как кровопускание, но более безопасный метод удаления не цельной крови, а её жидкой части — плазмы, компоненты которой и являются основными носителями патологических продуктов организма. Есть данные о положительном опыте применения данного метода лечения у больных с новой коронавирусной инфекции. Цель исследования: изучить применение метода плазмафереза и его влияние на результаты лечения больных с тяжелым течением новой коронавирусной инфекции. Несмотря на отсутствие статистически значимой разницы в количестве выживших между группами сравнения, применение однократного сеанса плазмафереза способствовало снижению воспалительной реакции, оцениваемой по лабораторным и клиническим признакам. Поэтому, необходим более детальный анализ оптимальных сроков начала проведения плазмафереза у больных с тяжелым течением новой коронавирусной инфекции и определения числа сеансов.

Plasmapheresis is a modern type of efferent therapy, like bloodletting, but a safer method of removing not whole blood, but its liquid part — plasma, the components of which are the main carriers of pathological products of the body. There is evidence of a positive experience of using this method of treatment in patients with a new coronavirus infection. The purpose of the study: to study the use of the plasmapheresis method and its effect on the results of treatment of patients with severe course of a new coronavirus infection. Despite the absence of a statistically significant difference in the number of survivors between the comparison groups, the use of a single plasmapheresis session contributed to a decrease in the inflammatory response, assessed by laboratory and clinical signs. Therefore, a more detailed analysis of the optimal timing of the start of plasmapheresis in patients with severe new coronavirus infection and determining the number of sessions is needed.

Published: January 2024

Травматичность операций при тотальном эндопротезировании коленных суставов не вызывает сомнений, и в послеоперационном периоде может сохраняться достаточно выраженный болевой синдром, что затрудняет раннюю активизацию пациентов. Цель исследования. Оценить эффекты от применения различных методов обезболивания в послеоперационном периоде пациентов, перенёсших операцию тотальное эндопротезирование коленного сустава. Использование указанных схем обезболивания не потребовало использования наркотических препаратов в послеоперационном периоде. Низкий уровень боли позволил начать раннюю активизацию пациентов обеих групп наблюдения.

The traumaticity of operations with total knee arthroplasty is beyond doubt, and in the postoperative period, a sufficiently pronounced pain syndrome may persist, which makes it difficult for patients to activate early. The purpose of the study. To evaluate the effects of the use of various methods of anesthesia in the postoperative period of patients who underwent total knee replacement surgery. The use of these pain relief schemes did not require the use of narcotic drugs in the postoperative period. The low level of pain made it possible to start early activation of patients in both observation groups.

Authors: Трембач Н.В. , Трембач И.А. , Вейлер Р.В.
Published: January 2024

Целью данного исследования было оценить динамику чувствительности барорефлекса (ЧБР) при обширных абдоминальных операциях у пациентов с различным риском критических инцидентов в условиях сочетанной анестезии пропофолом или севофлюраном. Проведено рандомизированное исследование у 160 пациентов (80 пациентов высокого риска и 80 пациентов низкого риска), которых рандомизировали в подгруппы по виду анестезии (сочетанная анестезия пропофолом или севофлюраном) для оценки влияния вида анестезии на частоту критических инцидентов (КИ) и динамику барорефлекса. Как анестезия пропофолом, так и анестезия севофлюраном приводят к снижению чувствительности артериального барорефлекса, которая не восстанавливается полностью через 24 часа после окончания операции. Пациенты высокого риска с исходно сниженной чувствительностью барорефлекса демонстрируют более частую послеоперационную барорефлекторную дисфункцию. Нарушение рефлекторной регуляции кардиореспираторной системы может играть существенную роль в развитии послеоперационных осложнений

Published: January 2024

With an expansive flood-prone region, effectively managing risks, particularly those impacting residents in flood-prone communities, poses a significant challenge for Malaysia. Regular in-depth studies are essential to enable the country to anticipate and comprehend the emerging risks that capable of causing both loss of life and damage to properties and public infrastructure. This research aimed to investigate the dynamics of flood risk management and present recommendations for stakeholders in mitigating the consequences of flood events. Employing a qualitative approach, 13 participants, all flood victims residing in Meru, Klang, were purposefully selected. The participants were divided into two groups: the first group, comprising 5 participants, engaged in a focus group interview, while the second group, consisting of 8 participants, responded to open-ended questions. Both groups answered identical structured questions in both oral and written formats. Thematic Analysis (TA) was applied to analyse the data from these exercises. The findings revealed that flood risk management comprises four components: psychological risk, improper development risk, evacuation risk, and communal risk. The study recommends the implementation of a comprehensive flood mitigation plan covering pre-, during, and post-flood phases to address the specific requirements arising during flood events. It is hoped that this research contributes valuable insights to augment the existing flood management system, benefiting not only the victims but also all stakeholders involved in managing the impacts of flood events.
Innovations in the Design of Pleated Clothing Using Digital Printing and Dyeing Technology
Authors: Chang Wei , Xu Xubing
Published: January 2024

Pleating technology plays a major role in the design of pleated clothing. Also known as wrinkle clothing design, pleating is a high temperature process that has been significantly influenced by progress in science and technology. The combination of pattern design and pleating through the use of digital printing and dyeing technology has become a key aspect of the visual presentation, embodiment of style, and decorative art associated with pleated clothing. This paper explores the historical background and performance of the technologies used in the pleating process, and examines the various modeling techniques that have been brought to bear. The principal innovations in the pleating process can be divided up into shaping, shrinking, and decorative technologies. The relationship between changes in pleating and clothing patterns is also discussed, together with how design thinking has approached the craft of overlaying patterns on pleated clothing. Depending on the clothing and kind of technology being used, there are three main ways in which innovative design can be applied to the pleating process: to create geometric clothing patterns; to create basic clothing patterns; and through the superposition of shrinking technology. A Chinese design case is presented to illustrate how the integration of technology and art can be realized. This paper may serve as a source of future reference for technological innovation in the design of pleated clothing.
A BVAR Note on the J-Curve and the Marshall-Lerner Condition for Brazil
Authors: Rocha Francisco J. S. , Magalhães Marcos R. V. , Brilhante Átila Amaral
Published: January 2024

In the present work, the hypotheses of the J-curve and the Marshall-Lerner condition for Brazil from January 2003 to December 2019 were tested. The impulse-response function (IRF) and the variance decomposition (VD) of a Bayesian vector autoregressive model (Minnesota priors) served as instruments for the empirical verification of the above-mentioned hypotheses. The Bai and Perron (1998, 2003) structural break test was carried out, which identified two breaks and, consequently, three subsamples, from January 2003 to October 2007; December 2007 to June 2015; and July 2015 to December 2019. The results showed that the estimated BVAR empirically supports the hypotheses in question. In the short term, it is observed that a real depreciation of the Brazilian currency results, in the first five months, in a deficit in the trade balance. However, as of the fourth month, the result of the trade balance becomes positive, and it remains like that for longer than ten months. This means that one cannot reject the J-curve hypothesis. For a forecast horizon of 36 months, it was found that the Marshall-Lerner condition should not be rejected either. In other words, a currency devaluation causes an increase in the trade balance for longer than three years.

Breaking Free: How Innovative Entrepreneurs are Disrupting Traditional Models in Dance and Music
Authors: Ojha Ayush Kumar
Published: January 2024

For centuries, the worlds of dance and music have operated within established structures: record labels, concert halls, and ballet studios. However, the digital revolution has empowered a new wave of entrepreneurial disruptors who are challenging these traditional models and forging a vibrant, independent landscape. This paper delves into the ecosystem of innovation fueling this transformation, uncovering how entrepreneurs are harnessing technology, building alternative revenue streams, and fostering inclusivity and diversity within the industry. We explore the rise of DIY platforms empowering artists to bypass traditional gatekeepers, the impact of streaming services on revenue distribution, and the emergence of innovative business models such as immersive experiences and online dance communities. Drawing on case studies and real-world examples, we examine the challenges and opportunities faced by entrepreneurial ventures in dance and music, from navigating intellectual property issues to building sustainable revenue streams. Ultimately, this paper argues that entrepreneurship is not just disrupting, but revitalizing these art forms. By breaking free from outdated models, these dynamic innovators are injecting a fresh dose of creativity, accessibility, and economic independence into the worlds of dance and music, paving the way for a more vibrant and inclusive future for both artists and audiences.
Supervision Models and Supervisory Feedback in English Language Teacher Education: A Meta-Synthesis Study Adopting a Discourse Analytic Perspective
Authors:   Akdeniz University, Türkiye, Şeyma Koç Fatma , Savaş Perihan ,   Middle East Technical University, Türkiye
Published: January 2024

This meta-synthesis reviewed and synthesized the findings of 53 studies on supervisory post-conferences and feedback with a total of 807 participants published between 2004-2023. The aim of this meta-synthesis was to illustrate the trends in the reviewed studies and synthesize the results of the studies on supervisory discourse and models of supervision in the field of English language teaching. The criteria for eligibility for selection were being empirical, peer-reviewed, and published in English. Articles were scanned through the Web of Science, ERIC, SCOPUS, and Google Scholar till July, 2023. The studies lacking a report of detailed and clear-cut data collection and analysis phases were removed in the appraisal phase to avoid a risk of bias. The results indicated that supervisors implemented directive supervisory styles as well as collaborative approaches exploiting power dynamics such as expert power. The findings also showed that the use of conversational techniques such as mediation, mitigators, and elicitation in supervisory talk play a central role in supervising English language teachers. The results suggested that supervised teachers demonstrated confronting, autonomous, and fluid identities when faced with a directive style of supervision. The limitations of evidence for this study related the search strategy, participants and variations in educational settings.

FORENSIC PSYCHOLOGY FOR JUSTICE RESTORATION
Authors: Teme Melania Roswita
Published: January 2024

Indonesia  is in the fourth of  most populous country in the world with a population of around 266,872,775 people (BPS, 2017), which has an impact on the emergence of social problems, crime and others. Central Bureau of Statistics data also illustrates in the period 2014 to 2016 the number of crimes in Indonesia tended to increase significantly in detail years: 2014: 325,317 cases, 2015: 352,936 cases, 2016: 357,197 cases. Meanwhile the number of recidivists also increased significantly. The current legal process, from the beginning to the results of the court rulings, to the correctional stage is deemed not optimal in fostering criminals to reduce recidivist rates. Besides the problem of the accumulation of case files and an overflowing number of prison inmates which have an impact on waste of the state budget. Recently, there has been a punishment paradigm known as restorative justice which encourages perpetrators to repair the losses they have caused to victims, their families and also the community. (Makarao, 2013). However, in the Justice Restoration process, law enforcement officials still need a real and objective format not only based on analogy and legal interpretation. To achieve this real, objective format, the use of forensic psychology is very much needed in the criminal justice process not only assisting during the examination at the police, at the prosecutor's office, in court and when the convict is in a correctional facility, but forensic psychology is utilized independently and optimally both at the level and level of collaborative technical applications, accompanied by a more futuristic understanding. Thus, it is hoped that this profession will help realize the supremacy of the legal system under a constitution that is effective and responsive, professional and with integrity in order to achieve the objectives of the law.
Kön, heterosexualitet och (o)trygghet: En feministisk analys av svenska säkerhetsdebatter i skuggan av kriget i Ukraina
Authors: Åse Cecilia , Wendt Maria , Jansson Maria , Eduards Maud
Published: January 2024

This article examines how the war in Ukraine and the subsequent re-orientation of Swedish security and defense policy leading up to a NATO-application, has been discussed in Swedish public debate. We ask what work gender does in the sense-making of the war and the changes in security policy. Departing from feminist theories of security and gendered protection, the study discusses the ambivalent ways in which gender and the trope of Sweden as a gender equal nation is negotiated in the media (print media and television) and by policy makers. The gendered imaginaries of masculinist protection and the vulnerability of women and children legitimize violence as the most adequate way to respond to this new situation. Gender is used to depoliticize security politics and to frame militarization as unavoidable. In this context, gender equality is both seen as a value worthy of protection and as an internal threat weakening men, and inclining women to object to the military responses suggested. We argue that the production of hypermasculinity and militarization promotes a security ideology imbued with violence, hierarchies, and control.
Juridical Study of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) for Plant Variety Protection (PVP) in Improving Agribusiness Competitiveness to Support the Sustainability of Indonesia's Economic Development
Authors: Nurani Nina
Published: January 2024

Purpose: This research aims to examine IPR protection for plant varieties through the regulation of the Patent Law and the PVP Law and formulate an appropriate legal regime to increase agribusiness competitiveness to support sustainable economic development. This research provides solutions for breeders and inventors as well as the government for the weaknesses of the Patent Law and PVP Law in addition to formulating the right IPR legal regime.

 

Design/methodology/data analysis: The research method uses normative juridical. Researchers analyzed through secondary data, comparative law methods, and historical juridical IPR theories. Researchers construct the formulation of an appropriate IPR regime system.

 

Findings:  Researchers formulate that the PVP Law is an IPR regime system that is more appropriate than the Patent Law to improve agribusiness competitiveness. The PVP Law can accommodate the characteristics of plant varieties, the value of traditional knowledge, and farmer exceptions. However, a new legal regime system related to traditional knowledge that can accommodate special matters is needed.

 

Originality/value: No one has examined the improvement of the IPR regime system and the establishment of a new legal regime related to "traditional knowledge" to improve agribusiness competitiveness to support sustainable economic development.

 

Practical implications: The government needs to reassess the PVP Law, among others: (1) need to accommodate protection arrangements related to "processes," (2) affirmation of the time limit for the protection of traditional knowledge, (3) enforcement of security and environmental sustainability, (4) authority to grant compulsory licenses. In addition, it is necessary to develop new types of laws related to the protection of traditional knowledge. This research can be applied in other countries that have the same characteristics as Indonesia.

Objetivo: O seguinte estudo teve como objetivo verificar a relação da Pressão Sistólica (PS) e Pressão Diastólica (PD) com a idade, o gênero e o IMC em idosos. Metodologia: O estudo de Análise Exploratória Prévia envolveu 13 alunos, de ambos sexos (9 mulheres e 4 homens) matriculados nas oficinas oferecidas pelo programa Vitalitá-PUC Campinas, sendo avaliados das seguintes maneiras: por meio de Medidas Antropométricas (peso corporal e estatura) utilizando a balança digital e estadiômetro vertical e pelas Medidas de Pressão Arterial, sendo avaliada a Pressão Arterial Diastólica (PD) e a Pressão Arterial Sistólica (PS), utilizando o esfigmomanômetro e o estetoscópio, respeitando a as recomendações da Diretriz Brasileira de Hipertensão Arterial (2020). Para a Análise Estatística, utilizou-se o teste de normalidade de Shapiro-Wilk, a fim de indicar se os dados apresentam tendência à normalidade e para verificar a correlação da Pressão Arterial com as demais variáveis independentes, foi recorrido ao teste de Pearson. Resultados: Quanto ao sexo, o grupo masculino apresentou valor da PD significativamente maior em comparação ao grupo feminino. Em relação às outras variáveis [Idade (r = -0,531; p = 0,076); estatura (r = -0,176; p = 0,584); peso (r = -0,249; p = 0,434) e IMC (r = -0,081; p = 0,801)] e [Idade (r = -0,250; p = 0,433); estatura (r = -0,178; p = 0,580); peso (r = 0,002; p = 0,995) e IMC (r = -0,177; p = 0,582)],  indicou que não há relação da Pressão Arterial com outras variáveis. Discussão: Em comparação com estudos utilizados, observa-se grande semelhança porém vale destacar a necessidade de interpretação quanto ao IMC, uma vez que ele não é capaz de avaliar as alterações nos compartimentos corporais em decorrência da idade. Sendo ela responsável por apresentar a pressão arterial mais alta em homens do que mulheres, à medida que envelhecem decorrente das diferenças hormonais e massa muscular. Enquanto ao gênero decorre devido a inúmeros fatores biológicos, hormonais e comportamentais. Conclusão: Conclui-se que para essa amostra, o gênero foi a única variável que mostrou correlação com a PAD.

Authors: Wang Meng , Yang Qiaoyun , Chen Yanjiao
Published: January 2024

Background:
For more than 20 years, China's basic medical insurance system has realized the span from "system construction" to "improving quality and efficiency". At present, as the core issue of medical insurance system design, the current financing mechanism is difficult to adapt to the current situation and tasks.
Objectives:
Based on the theory of social equity, this paper uses literature analysis and comparative research to analyze the forms of social health insurance financing in four developed countries: Germany, the United States, Singapore and the United Kingdom. On this basis, it makes a systematic reference and reflection on the financing mechanism of basic medical insurance in China.
Methods:
The author adopts the method of literature analysis and comparative study. Through the existing research literature and the theoretical analysis of the medical insurance financing mechanism, the conceptual connotation and dimension of the basic medical insurance financing mechanism are further summarized and analyzed, which provides the reference and theoretical basis for the writing ideas of this paper.
By analyzing and comparing the typical practice of the social medical insurance model in four developed countries, the basic ideas, main practices, direction goals, principle adherence, implementation results, realistic difficulties and obstacles of obtaining medical insurance financing are discussed. This paper analyzes the development status of medical insurance financing mechanism between China and four developed countries by means of classification, induction and comparison, and puts forward the optimization path based on the experience of the latter's fair practice.
Results:
it proposes that the current funding mechanism of China's basic medical insurance has three problems: An unbalanced funding structure and unreasonable sharing of responsibility; low level of coordination and unfair funding method; and dynamic growth mechanism of endogenous medical insurance funding has not yet been established.
Main Contribution to Evidence-Based Practice:
On the basis of the international experience, the author puts forward some enlightening reform measures to solve the existing problems in China: first, through the reasonable definition of the rights and responsibilities of multi-stakeholder, to construct the appearance of fair implementation; Second, reform the existing fixed financing methods and establish a fair financing mechanism linked to income; The third is to improve the actuarial mechanism of fund adjustment and promote the dynamic and sustainable growth of medical insurance funds. We will further optimize the financing mechanism of basic medical insurance and promote the high-quality and sustainable development of China's basic medical insurance.

Social responsibility is a key element in meeting the needs of the context in which an organization operates. In the healthcare sector, attention to this concept has involved studying internal aspects, as well as the contribution to its implementation in the management of processes and practices of the organization's agents. In order to analyze the relationship between social responsibility and hospital culture, a mixed study was conducted in two phases. First, a focused ethnography was implemented, followed by a systematic review study. The results showed a poor conceptual development of the category, the importance of organizational ethics, the values in the regulation exerted by hospital culture on social responsibility, and the need for the dual nature of social responsibility in terms of its design as an instrument or strategy of the organization. It is concluded that achieving a better operationalization of social responsibility is necessary for its reproduction in the hospital culture, as such responsibility must be promoted as an individual practice based on a solid worldview, and from this achievement, consolidated as a set of identifiable actions. Thus, quality must be a crossing in the design and description of the dimensions and indicators of social responsibility and an organizational value.

E-commerce has become a fundamental part of modern life, but consumer confidence in online transactions is essential. In a study conducted in the San Hilarion Urbanization in Lima in 2022, consumer confidence was found to have a low but significant correlation with e-commerce. This means that as consumer confidence increases, their willingness to make online purchases also strengthens. Consumer confidence was found to be influenced by factors such as the payment methods available in e-commerce. When consumers trust online payment methods, they are more willing to make online purchases. Online security also plays an important role; the more secure consumers feel online, the greater their trust in e-commerce. In addition, consumer trust toward online media also affects their willingness to engage in e-commerce. As consumers trust online media, they become more comfortable browsing and shopping online. Recommendations include emphasizing communication with consumers, implementing security certifications, ensuring data integrity, and providing required information. These measures can help strengthen consumer confidence and foster further growth in e-commerce.

People usually start committing to quality service with great enthusiasm, but then companies face difficulties in maintaining a positive attitude or retaining employees in the company, after giving satisfactory results, they do not feel that reciprocity from the company, so they leave to find better job opportunities in other companies. These factors clearly affect customer satisfaction, and the repercussions are reflected in the lack of attention to customer needs; long response times, lack of empathy with the customer, referring the customer from one section to another, not providing humanized attention, not offering a solution to the customer's problem. In this sense, the study was oriented to measure the ratio between customer satisfaction and service quality in the Mype "Créditos Becerra", Lima, 2022. Its result was a bilateral significance of 0,000 < 0,005, that is, the alternative hypothesis is approved, there is a correlation between customer satisfaction and service quality, in addition a correlation index of 0,953 is observed, demonstrating a high reciprocity between both variables in question. It was concluded that the enthusiasm for quality should be nurtured in people in order not to lose, and there is much dependence on the part of the guides of the companies, all in order to maintain optimal consumer satisfaction.
Klebsiella pneumoniae Metallobetalactamase in the neonatology service of the Abel Santamaría Hospital: case report
Authors: Gutiérrez Catañeda Dianelys de la Caridad , Hechavarría Gutiérrez Yisel
Published: January 2024

Introduction: Klebsiella pneumoniae is considered a superbacteria due to its extreme resistance to most antimicrobials and because it produces carbapenemases, enzymes that hydrolyze carbapenem antibiotics. This threat is exacerbated by the reduction in the discovery of new antibiotics.
Case presentation: Preterm newborn of 32,3 weeks of gestation and birth weight of 1790 grams, born on January 3, 2023 with mild neonatal depression and early sepsis due to coagulase-negative staphylococcus. It worsens, presenting jaundice, anemia and thrombocytopenia, with blood cultures positive for Enterobacter Gergoviae and later for Enterobacter agglomerans. Antibiotic therapy was based on different antibiograms depending on the germ isolated without presenting clinical improvement. The isolation obtained from Enterobacter aglomerans showed KPC resistance phenotype, so the sample was referred to the “Pedro Kouri” Institute of Tropical Medicine, where the growth of Klebsiella pneumoniae with NDM metallobetalactamase resistance phenotype was obtained, only Sensitive to colistin and Intermediate to phosphokine. Contact precautions and treatment with colistin and phosphokine are applied. As a result, the patient resolves the infection and it is not transmitted to other neonates in the service.
Conclusions: Klebsiella pneumoniae NDM infections constitute a danger due to the few therapeutic options, leaving colistin as the only alternative, due to resistance to carbapenems and due to the limitations in its identification in microbiology laboratories at the provincial level. The rational use of antimicrobials and microbiological surveillance are important for its control.

Introduction: the lack of control of blood pressure levels constitutes a serious health problem.
Objective: determine the factors associated with blood pressure control.
Method: observational, analytical, cross-sectional study, developed between 2021 and 2023, in a sample of 140 hypertensive patients, from office 59, of the Turcios Lima Polyclinic. The documentary review and the application of instruments allowed the obtaining of information that gave rise to the analyzed variables, using descriptive and inferential statistics methods.
Results: 55,0 % of the patients did not have blood pressure control, which was associated with age (p<0,001), cohabitation (p<0,001), stress level (p<0,001), trait anxiety (p<0,001) and status (p<0,001). All the risk factors evaluated showed the same behavior, with a median of 10 years since the diagnosis of the disease, with 37,9 % of the sample presenting polypharmacy. Partial adherence predominated in the study (50,7 %), being associated with pressure control (p<0,001).
Conclusions: the study allowed us to identify the factors presented by patients that are related to the control of blood pressure levels. For this purpose, the sociodemographic and psychosocial spheres were analyzed, as well as the lifestyle and clinical characteristics, which made it possible to establish the variables that affect a modification of the control of said blood pressure figures.
Conceptualizing the Iterative method of Newton-Raphson for systems with two equations
Authors: Triantafyllou Serafeim A.
Published: January 2024

In numerical analysis, Newton-Raphson method is a root-finding algorithm which generates iterative approximations to the zeroes (or roots) of a real-valued function. This paper describes in a detailed way the mathematical background around the iterative method of Newton-Raphson for systems with two equations. Next, an algorithmic implementation of the iterative method of Newton-Raphson for systems with two equations is developed in Pascal Programming Language, to represent the steps of this method with a procedural programming language with special emphasis on the use of computing in the scientific area of mathematics.

Final consumers still go to food markets to purchase basic family products; this purchase attitude is more frequent in low-income sectors because prices are relatively low, and in many cases service quality and customer satisfaction are sacrificed. In this context, the objective of this study was to determine to what extent service quality and customer satisfaction are related in Peruvian food markets. Through a quantitative approach at a descriptive and correlational level, the sample consisted of 183 buyers, and the instrument was a questionnaire with 16 items, whose reliability index was a Cronbach's Alpha of 0,996. As a result, a coefficient (r=0,990) and a significance value of 0,000 were obtained. It was concluded that there is a strong relationship between the proposed variables; it is inferred that if the service quality variable increases, so will the customer satisfaction variable, in the same magnitude and vice versa. It is recommended to propose strategies and policies to standardize the quality of the service provided, and thus leverage the satisfaction that the customer perceives for the provision of such services and the consequent increase in the sale of the products sold there.

The development of scientific thinking is an imperative for university students. In the specific case of careers whose social responsibility is the education of future generations, it constitutes a fundamental need due to its projection in the teaching-learning processes. The objective of the research was to analyze the relationship between scientific research methods with the methods of teaching History for the development of scientific thinking. It was based on a mixed embedded design, with a sequential strategy and descriptive scope. The results suggest the need to delve deeper into the didactic design of History teaching, particularly with regard to the logical relationship between investigative and didactic methods that contribute to the development of scientific thinking. It was concluded that, despite there being an educational model for professional training oriented towards achieving learning results to develop scientific thinking, investigative-didactic methodological alternatives are required, since its effective implementation in the classroom has presented limitations due to that university professors must have methodological preparation focused on students as required by contemporary pedagogical models.
