Finiq rebirth through digital transformation and “digital nomads”
Authors: Shehu Dhurata
Published: October 2024

The topic of shrinking cities is multifaceted and affects cities, regions of cities, or entire metropolitan areas that have seen a rapid decline in their economic and social foundations. Therefore, urban shrinking is frequently a problem for metropolitan regions on a large scale and necessitates that policymakers rethink conventional regional government models. Also, Albania's population overall decreased yearly. This problem is very known in the case of Finiq municipality, which is part of Vlora city. Most of the settlements that are part of the municipality of Finiq present a social framework consisting of a shrinking and always aging population. For various reasons, mainly economic, unemployment and lack of services, the young population of these areas has mostly migrated to Greece. In order to restructure rural areas in response to shrinkage, information and communication technology (ICT), digitaliza- tion, and knowledge intensive activities are essential. It is important to understand the differ- ent aspects of the digital revolution, since the situation is evolving into a new normal where "digital" is not only a response to an emergency but also an ongoing investment against risk. Studies has shown that digital nomads often prefer settlements outside urban areas so they can be a significant contributor to the recovery of the economy in Finiq, which largely depends on ICT infrastructure level of municipality. A lot of researches for digital nomads concluded that digital nomads could be crucial in promoting entrepreneurship and the development of technology clusters all over the world. So, the research question is: how can digital nomads be developed as a new market segment in Finiq and how can digital nomads be utilized in the local digital ecosystem? This study focuses on digital nomads as an emerging market group and the possible knowledge transfer function they might play in the local digital environment.
Co-evolutive Resilience: The Hidden Identity of Phoenicia
Authors: Jesku Franklind
Published: October 2024

Finiq is the biggest town in its municipality and has served as an administrative center for various years. Most of the dwellings are placed during the 1990-2000 decade, referring to the previous and the current maps. Because of massive emigration trends in the past, there are many abandoned and unfinished houses. The uninhabited villages that have been abandoned in recent decades make up a serious problem, which is all too common in many Balkan countries. As a result, various buildings are semi-finished and in a degraded state, both architectural and structural. Also, on top of the hill of Finiq, there is an archeological site of the old Phoenicia city. It serves as the main touristic attraction for the town, along with the bucolic scene of the countryside. By analyzing the territory of Finiq we figured out that there is a hidden identity of the urban structure. As the town lays morphologically on the strip, it fragmentises from the second and third row of buildings, showing a “missed typological block”. On the other hand, it shows the creation of spontaneous empty spaces, that suggest this hidden spirit of the town, created imaginatively by connecting them. The simple disposal of each building to the nearest one creates what Franco Purini calls the “border distance”, a distance that, like in Michelangelo’s fresco, creates a necessary situation for one to feel the magnetic force of attraction or repulsion between the two bodies. The space where this magnetic force is exerted is the key point from which to draw the hidden spirit of Finiq. It is precisely the shape of that space that will determine the rules for the evolution of the town's identity. We will analyze in this paper how this space "between" can “co-evolve” if the institutions and the people who live there find a common language to reinvent a new but existing architecture of the place. As spotted in the analysis, we can confirm that there is an identity in Finiq. A “hidden spirit” lies in empty and fragmented spaces. It’s a millennial town, therefore something stronger than the constructions exists there. The resilience of the context’s form, space, and time coexist in lost identity, which we can strongly expose by intervening surgically. the co-evolution of these public spaces must start from precise rules which, through the careful analysis of the architect and urban planner, must be able to direct the inevitable spontaneity of the place’s history, without having a drastic top- down effect.
Ideological Uses and Management Policies of Archaeological Sites in Post-Socialist Albania: The Case of Saranda Area (Finiq and Butrint)
Authors: Dalanaj Velta
Published: October 2024

This article is a sample of the research I am conducting in the wider area of Saranda as part of the wider framework of critical analysis of cultural heritage, this scientific field that is placed at the meeting point of archaeology and anthropology. The two sciences have intersected in many different ways since the 1980s. Archaeology as a science that studies the archaeological remains of the past was confronted with anthropology whose purpose is the cultural analysis of social phenomena and relationships. The result of this partnership is a wide range of approaches, which are called post-process archaeologies . These approaches represent a variety of analyses, which emphasize a contextual, and thus contemporaneous, nature of archaeological evidence, the critique of archaeology as a scientific search for objective truth, its links with history and the contested nature of archaeological data and of the archaeological work. This perspective turns the interest of research from explanation to interpretation and from the positivist tradition of natural science to the tradition of interpretational philosophy, i.e. the preeminent study of meaning.

Clinical Decision Support Systems (CDSS) are computer-based tools that leverage the analysis of large volumes of health data to assist healthcare professionals in making clinical decisions, whether preventive, diagnostic, or therapeutic. This review examines the impact of CDSS on clinical practice, highlighting both their potential benefits and their limitations and challenges. We detail the experience of clinical medical professionals in the development of a virtual control center for COVID-19 patients (C3 COVID-19) in Spain during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. This tool enabled real-time monitoring of clinical data for hospitalized COVID-19 patients, optimizing personalized and informed medical decision-making. CDSS can offer significant advantages, such as improving the quality of inpatient care, promoting evidence-based clinical and therapeutic decision-making, facilitating treatment personalization, and enhancing healthcare system efficiency and productivity. However, the implementation of CDSS presents challenges, including the need for physicians to become familiar with the systems and software, and the necessity for ongoing updates and technical support of the systems.
Legal Analysis of Play-To-Earn Videogames
Authors:   HSE University, Budnik Ruslan A. ,   Institute of China and Modern Asia of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Zverev Maksim O. ,   Russian State Academy of Intellectual Property
Published: October 2024

The purpose of this study is to provide an in-depth legal analysis of the phenomenon of profitable video games, the copyright holders of which, unlike the owners of online computer games of previous generations, recognise the copyright of users in the works created or processed by them, and provide players with the opportunity to dispose of their intellectual rights to make a profit. The work employs scientific methods to analyse contentious relationships in the legal aspects of profitable video games and compares different approaches to their regulation. The fundamental legal differences in the conditions for using free and profitable video games have been identified and analysed. The paper provides the systematisation and discloses the legal nature of methods players use to generate income within network computer games. The research discovers the legal, organisational, and economic reasons and risks leading to the non-recognition of user copyrights and the imposition of a ban on their disposal by copyright holders of free video games. A mechanism has been discovered and disclosed that allowed the owners of profitable video games to eliminate intellectual and legal risks, recognise gamers’ copyrights to the works they created and launch the legal circulation of rights to them. The work analyses the model for using the blockchain infrastructure and non-fungible tokens as its elements for fixing and disposing of rights to user-generated gaming artefacts. The smart contract as the legal instrument of blockchain platforms is critically analysed. Authors made their proposals to improve the legal efficiency of a smart contract by adding a system of standard public licenses. The scientific novelty of the work lies in explaining the legal nature of the phenomenon of profitable video games and the mechanism for disposing of copyrights within them, as well as in proving the absence of identity between a profitable video game and such an object of special regulation as gambling. The practical significance of the article consists in the applicability of its results for improving the legal regulation in the context of the complication of the ecosystem, the growth of the market and the scale of the audience of online computer games.
Ways to Improve the Legal Regulation of Neighbour’s Rights in the Russian Legislation
Authors:   Kutafin Moscow State Law University (MSAL), Shavaleev Mikhail V. ,   Private Law Research Centre
Published: October 2024

The author analyses civil-law restrictions of the property right of the owner of real estate, legislatively outlining his legal powers in favour of neighbours and thereby establishing the limit of the owner’s powers in the use of his property. Due to the absence of rules of neighbour law in the Russian civil legislation, special attention is paid to the comparative analysis of developed foreign legal orders. The purpose of the study is to find ways to improve the legal regulation of neighbour’s rights in the Russian legislation, to overcome the general lack of system and fragmentation of legal provisions in the sphere of neighbours’ relations.
Negatory Action as a Way to Decide Neighbour Cases
Authors:   St. Petersburg State University, Krasnova Tatyana S.
Published: October 2024

On the ground of a model situation the author looks at a negatory action as a way to decide neighbour cases. In particular, several issues of active and passive legitimation under a negatory action, causes for filing and upholding a negatory action are discussed. The author also focuses on the need to distinguish a negatory action from a tort action and an action for the establishing of the land plots boundaries. Thus, the theoretical material is refracted through the prism of a specific case.
The Right of Access: An Easement or A Neighbour’s Access Right?
Authors:   Saint Petersburg State University, Barabina Elizaveta A.
Published: October 2024

The article analyses the right of access: the right of passage and the right of connection (flow) of resources. It is hypothesised that the right of access is not a separate subjective right but an entitlement, i.e. an element of the title under which real estate is used, which allows the right of access to be classified, along with mutual rights (permissible emmission rights), as a category of neighbour’s rights. Since the right of access follows from the very title to one’s property, it does not require the establishment of a limited property right over another’s property. The category of access rights is distinguished from related legal constructs involving interaction with others’ property: on one hand, behavioural possibilities provided by public law, which do not imply any subjective rights (such as public easements); on the other hand, limited property rights, which are independent subjective rights. It is proposed to distinguish easements from the right of access based on the origin, derived from the level of satisfied needs. Neighbour’s access rights are intended to meet the needs of the right holder without which their right would become nominal, therefore the right of access should not require any additional procedures (obtaining consent or a court decision, which would leave the right nominal during the waiting period). The right of access stems from the title but may be expressed by the law as the limits of ownership rights to neighbouring real estate (pre-revolutionary Russia, Germany). An easement as a subjective property right is proposed to be viewed as an adaptation of legal relations to the interests of specific neighbours, shifting the boundary of what is permissible by law towards greater (easement of convenience) or lesser (negative easement) impact.
Neighbours’ Interventions under German and Swiss Law
Authors:   MGIMO University, Shcherbakov Aleksandr A.
Published: October 2024

This article analyses the neighbour law in the law of Germany and Switzerland with the question of borrowing foreign experience in Russia. For this purpose, the classification of neighbours’ interventions is examined in detail. Each type is considered in the context of foreign doctrine and judicial practice, its impact on the balance of interests of neighbours and the state is studied, and a conclusion is made about the necessity or lack thereof for potential borrowing in Russia. Also important terms and principles accompanying neighbourly relations are analysed: materiality of interference, economic feasibility of measures to reduce harmful effects, the principle of good neighbours in the context of cohabitation. The ways of protection of the owner’s rights against them are considered, among which there are negatory action, tort action, challenging the decision of a public authority, compensation action. As a result of the study, the following conclusions are drawn. Not all types of interference in the right of ownership by a neighbour could be relevant in Russia, in particular intangible (affecting the value of real estate without direct interference in use) and aggregate interferences (from several sources and issuers) are applied in Germany with great difficulty (most often only reaching the Supreme Court), but positive (physical) interferences and negative (interfering in use without direct physical interference), taking into account the text of the draft reform of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation (where they are indirectly taken into account) would be important in the future and could find a place in the legal system of the Russian Federation.

Der Einfluss der dominanten Kultur auf Übersetzungsstrategien. : Eine kontrastive Analyse der Übersetzung von vogelbezogenen kulturspezifischen Elementen in zwei deutschen Shijing-Übersetzungen*
Authors: Pang Nana , Sun Meng
Published: October 2024

Abstract: Kulturspezifische Elemente tragen reiche kulturelle Bedeutungen in sich. Die Auswahl geeigneter Übersetzungsstrategien für diese Elemente beeinflusst maßgeblich die Qualität und Rezeption der Übersetzung, wobei die dominante Kultur
eine entscheidende Rolle spielen kann. Diese Studie untersucht den Zusammenhang zwischen den Übersetzungsstrategien für vogelbezogene kulturspezifische Elemente und der dominanten Kultur in zwei deutschen Übersetzungen des Shijing: der Übersetzung von Viktor von
Strauß aus dem Jahr 1880 und der Übersetzung von Rainald Simon aus dem Jahr 2015. Während von Strauß’ Version die erste vollständige deutsche Übersetzung des Shijing darstellt, ist Simons Version die zweite. Basierend auf Theorien der Übersetzung
– bezogen auf die dominante Kultur, einbürgernde und verfremdende Übersetzungsansätze – zeigt diese Studie auf, dass sich die Übersetzungen von vogelbezogenen kulturspezifischen Elementen im Laufe von mehr als hundert Jahren erheblich verändert haben. Beide
Übersetzer wurden von der dominanten Kultur ihrer jeweiligen Epoche beeinflusst und setzten unterschiedliche Übersetzungsstrategien ein. Von Strauß wurde hauptsächlich von der deutschen Kultur beeinflusst und neigte zur einbürgernden Übersetzungsstrategie, während
Simon sowohl von der deutschen als auch von der chinesischen Kultur beeinflusst wurde und eine verfremdende Übersetzungsstrategie bevorzugte.
Wei Zhang: Chinese adaptations of Brecht: appropriation and intertextuality. Cham: Palgrave Macmillan 2020, 200 S.
Authors: Rao Beilei
Published: October 2024

Der Titel der Arbeit Chinese adaptations of Brecht: appropriation and intertextuality benennt bereits präzise den Forschungsgegenstand: In dieser Arbeit wird die Rezeption der Brechtschen Stücke in China vom Ende der Kulturrevolution bis heute untersucht. Bei der Studie
aus dem Jahr 2020, die auf einem Dissertationsprojekt basiert, geht es vor allem darum, wie Brechts Stücke von chinesischen Dramaturginnen adaptiert oder angeeignet wurden, um die soziopolitischen, wirtschaftlichen und kulturellen Entwicklungen in China seit 1979 zu thematisieren. Dabei
legt die Autorin den Fokus auf die Verflechtung der chinesischen traditionellen Theaterform xiqu, in der chinesische Philosophie, Ethik und Ästhetik verwurzelt sind, mit Brechts politischen Theaterstücken. Einerseits reiht sich diese Studie ein in den wissenschaftlichen Diskurs
über die wechselseitige Beziehung zwischen Brecht und China, wie Renata Berg-Pans Bertolt Brecht and China (1979), Antony Tatlows The Mask of Evil: Brecht's Response to the Poetry, Theatre and Thought of China and Japan (1977), Tian Mins The Poetics of Difference and
Displacement: Twentieth-Century Chinese-Western Intercultural Theatre (2008) und Mei Lanfang and the Twentieth-Century International Stage: Chinese Theatre Placed and Displaced (2012) sowie einzelne Aufsätze und Buchkapitel; andererseits unterscheidet sich dieser Beitrag von
den oben genannten Untersuchungen, da die Autorin ihren Blick weder auf Brechts Rezeption der chinesischen Philosophie und Kultur noch auf die chinesische Rezeption der Brechtschen dramaturgischen Konzepte, sondern auf spezifische Bearbeitungen der Brechtschen Stücke in China richtet.
In diesem Sinne dient ihr Beitrag aus einer chinesischen Perspektive als wertvolle Ergänzung zu den Forschungslücken im Bereich der Verbreitung der Brechtschen Stücke auf der Weltbühne sowie der Strömungen der internationalen Dramatik.

,,Die spannungsvollsten Tagebücher Europas sind […] diejenigen, in denen eine individuelle Krise ebenso zum diaristischen Antrieb wird wie eine krisenhafte Umwelt. Starre Machtsysteme, tyrannische Staatsformen machen den Geist ,einsam, zwingen also den diaristischen inneren

weiter: ,,Es versteht sich, daß die zahllosen Tagebücher, die in Kasernen, Krankenhäusern und Gefängnissen oder in Verstecken während Kriegen und Revolutionen, unter Diktaturen oder in der Emigration geschrieben wurden, Ausbrüche unterdrückter Kritik und

Impact of Open-Angle Glaucoma Severity on Vision-Related Quality of Life: A Cross-Sectional Study in a Single Center in Indonesia
Authors: Rino Agustian Praja  , Andrini Ariesti  , Hendriati  , Muhammad Hidayat  , Irayanti  , Julita
Published: October 2024

Background: Glaucoma is a progressive optic neuropathy characterized by the gradual loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and their axons, leading to irreversible visual field loss. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the severity of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and vision-related quality of life (VRQoL) in a single center in Indonesia.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the eye polyclinic of Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital, Padang, Indonesia, from June to August 2024. A total of 54 patients with POAG were included and categorized into mild, moderate, and severe groups based on their cup-to-disc ratio and visual field index (VFI). VRQoL was assessed using the Indonesian version of the National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire (NEI-VFQ 25).
Results: The mean VRQoL score was significantly lower in the severe group (60.63 ± 13.04) compared to the moderate (81.79 ± 10.42) and mild (85.04 ± 10.52) groups (p = 0.000). A strong negative correlation was observed between glaucoma severity and VRQoL (r = -0.667, p = 0.000). The social functioning subscale showed the strongest correlation with severity (r = -0.573, p = 0.000).
Conclusion: The severity of POAG significantly impacts VRQoL, with more severe disease associated with lower QoL scores. The social functioning domain appears to be particularly affected. These findings underscore the importance of comprehensive glaucoma management that addresses not only clinical parameters but also the patient's overall quality of life.
Building a Culture of Compliance: The Influence of Tax Socialization and Inclusion on Indonesian Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) Taxpayers

Published: October 2024

Taxes serve as the cornerstone of any nation's economic framework, functioning as both a regulatory mechanism and a primary source of government revenue. They are indispensable for managing taxpayer behavior, ensuring a steady stream of state income, and financing essential public services and infrastructure development. In Indonesia, the compliance of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) is pivotal to the nation's fiscal well-being. This study delves into the factors that influence MSME taxpayer compliance, specifically focusing on the role of tax socialization, tax inclusion, and the involvement of tax volunteers. A quantitative research approach was adopted, involving the distribution of questionnaires to MSME taxpayers in Indonesia. The data collected was then analyzed using SPSS software to test the hypotheses regarding the impact of tax socialization, tax inclusion, and tax volunteers on taxpayer compliance. The findings of this study reveal that tax socialization and tax inclusion positively influence the level of tax compliance among Indonesian MSME taxpayers. Furthermore, the involvement of tax volunteers also has a positive impact on enhancing taxpayer compliance. This study underscores the importance of tax socialization and tax inclusion in fostering a culture of compliance among MSMEs in Indonesia. The positive role of tax volunteers in assisting taxpayers and promoting compliance is also highlighted. These findings have significant implications for tax authorities in their efforts to improve tax compliance rates and enhance revenue collection.
A Statistical Method for EEG Channel Selection
Authors: Zîrnă Bianca-Alexandra , Frunzete Mădălin Corneliu
Published: October 2024

A new statistical analysis of medical signals is proposed based on information extracted for diagnosis. Several specialized tests can be run on electroencephalography (EEG) signal due to its nonlinear behavior. Epileptic EEG signals are the main topic of this research. A statistics-based approach is proposed for the automatic selection of the relevant channels that will not only provide more accurate characterization but also require fewer computing resources. Moreover, the outcomes given by specific electrode pairs might indicate epileptic focus. By selecting the most efficient electrode placement, alarms for detecting inappropriate medical behavior could then be triggered.
MORPHOLOGICAL SUBSTANTIATION OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PHOTODYNAMIC THERAPY IN CASE OF WIDESPREAD PERITONITIS IN AN EXPERIMENT
Authors:   PhD, Tashkent Pediatric Medical Institute, Uzbekistan, Sabirmatov Аlisher
Published: October 2024

The article presents the results of experimental studies on the effects on the parietal and visceral peritoneum of intact animals and with simulated widespread peritonitis in white mongrel rats weighing 140 180 g. It was found that methylene blue at a concentration of 0.05% in intact animals at exposure of 5 minutes causes desquamation and small foci of necrosis of mesothelial cells, and in peritonitis against the background of photodynamic therapy has a beneficial effect on reparative processes due to the formation of singlet oxygen. The histological picture of the peritoneum in rats after abdominal sanitation by PDT at all stages of the study was qualitatively better than that of the representatives of the group during abdominal sanitation with 0.02% chlorhexidine solution. Based on the results of morphological studies, the authors recommend that the developed method of photodynamic sanitation of the abdominal cavity be introduced into clinical practice.
Engaging Black and Latine Transgender and Gender Diverse Persons in Research: Advice from a Community-Based Focus Group
Authors: Misiolek Brayden A. , Batra Peter , Hicks Lance , Tupper Cailtlin A. , Lewis Nancy J. W.
Published: October 2024

Black and Latine transgender and gender diverse (trans/gender diverse) individuals are often underrepresented in general population studies as well as those specific to the LGBTQIA+ community. This study sought to identify effective means of engaging Black and Latine trans/gender diverse persons into research studies. A community-led process enhanced the likelihood of successfully meeting this objective. We gathered qualitative data via a virtual focus group of adults who self-identified as trans/gender diverse and Black and/or Latine. To stimulate discussion about effective recruitment strategies, barriers, and incentives for research participation, we developed a semi-structured guide. The focus group processes incorporated trauma-informed practices. We conducted qualitative analysis using thematic analysis. Four Black, three Latine, and one multiracial trans/gender diverse individuals participated in the focus group. Participant comments indicated that trust in research staff and sponsors and trans/gender diverse persons’ leadership in study processes increased interest in participation. Recruitment materials that encouraged participation portrayed Black and Latine trans/gender diverse persons, specified how barriers to participation will be overcome, assured a safe study environment, and detailed financial compensation commensurate with topic sensitivity. Previous negative experiences were a barrier to future study enrollment. Participants weighed the anticipated emotional burden of participation against the perceived community benefits of the research.

Antecedentes: deformación congénita caracterizada por la combinación de cuatro componentes principalmente; equinismo (flexión plantar del tobillo), varo del retropié (desviación hacia adentro del talon), cavus (arqueo acentuado del mediopie) y aducción del antepié. Esta deformación tiene una incidencia de 1 por cada 1.000 recién nacidos siendo una de las malformaciones más frecuentes que afecta directamente el sistema musculoesquelético Metodología: Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica a través de diversas bases de datos desde el año 2018 al año 2024; la búsqueda y selección de artículos fue llevada a cabo en revistas indexadas en idioma inglés y español. Se utilizaron como palabras clave: osteoporosis, novedades, factura de cadera, adulto mayor Resultados: El tratamiento precoz es de gran de ayuda para generar resultados óptimos y prevenir discapacidades a largo plazo, ya que en algunos casos el pie equino varo puede ser resistente al tratamiento, por lo tanto, la elección del tratamiento depender del grado de deformidad, edad y criterio del médico tratante, en los últimos años el manejo quirúrgico del pie equino varo no ha experimentado cambios radicales en cuanto a su intervención sin embargo, se han tenido pequeños avancen en algunas áreas con el fin de optimizar los resultados y minimizar las complicaciones, pero los procedimientos quirúrgicos siguen siendo los mismos que en años anteriores. Conclusión:  dentro del manejo del pie equino varo existen los métodos no quirúrgicos y los métodos quirúrgicos, cuya intervención quirúrgica en la mayoría de los casos puede ser de suma importancia, debido al avance de la tecnología, aunque los métodos siguen siendo los mismo se han implementado mejorías en la técnica generando intervenciones mínimamente invasivas como las tenotomías, osteotomías o liberación de tejidos blandos, a través de la implementación de nuevas herramientas.

La leucemia viral felina tiene una distribución mundial afectando principalmente a gatos domésticos. Esta infección está influenciada por la respuesta inmune del hospedador, lo que conduce a los principales tipos de infección: abortiva, regresiva y progresiva. El objetivo del estudio fue determinar la carga proviral en gatos con infección progresiva, regresiva y sin infección, mediante una técnica de PCR en tiempo real; Se incluyeron 8 gatos domésticos provenientes de clínicas veterinarias del Estado de México y zonas aledañas, mayores de seis meses de edad, con y sin cuadro clínico sugestivo de la infección con el virus de la leucemia viral felina. Se observaron diferencias significativas (p < 0.005) en los niveles de carga proviral entre los distintos tipos de infección. Los valores de carga proviral en 4 gatos con infección regresiva se encontró entre el rango de 0.6161 y 0.7360 (log 10), a diferencia de los gatos con infección progresiva cuya carga viral fue entre 0.8895 y 1.3907 y los 2 gatos sin infección fluctuaron entre 0.0551 a 0.1996. Estas diferencias en los niveles de carga proviral relativa son importantes para el diagnóstico, curso de la infección y pronóstico en los gatos infectados. A partir de los productos positivos a la PCR de FeLV se obtuvieron dos secuencias de interés y se realizó un análisis filogenético cuya asociación al feline leukemia virus, confirmo la especificidad de los productos amplificados que confirmo la infección en gatos positivos.

El objetivo de esta investigación consiste en explorar la actitud de los docentes hacia la formación y uso de competencias digitales que fomenten la creatividad, el pensamiento crítico y el trabajo colaborativo en educación superior. Para ello, se utilizó un enfoque cuantitativo mediante un cuestionario adaptado de Agreda, Hinojo y Sola (2016), que evalúa las actitudes hacia las TIC. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 69 docentes de un centro universitario del occidente de México, seleccionados por muestreo no probabilístico por conveniencia. Los resultados muestran que la mayoría de los docentes (83%) percibe de manera positiva la integración de las TIC en el aula, destacando su potencial para mejorar la enseñanza y el aprendizaje. Sin embargo, algunos (16%) expresaron preocupaciones sobre el uso inadecuado de estas tecnologías por parte de los estudiantes. El estudio resalta además, la importancia de la capacitación docente en competencias digitales para asegurar una adopción efectiva de las TIC, esenciales para la innovación educativa y la potencialización de su impacto en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje.
