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.

Abstract

This study looks into how digital technologies like mobile apps, digital maps, and augmented reality affect tourists' satisfaction in Kazakhstan. We worked with a mix of methods, mainly surveys combined with statistical analysis done through SPSS, to see how tourists using these digital tools feel compared to those who don’t. The results clearly show that these technologies make traveling easier, more engaging, and overall more enjoyable. We also found that different regions adopt these tools in various ways, which means there’s no one-size-fits-all approach—strategies should be tailored to different groups of tourists. This research gives practical insights for tourism businesses and policymakers who want to boost service quality and encourage sustainable growth by embracing digital innovations.
