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 article explores the role of visual content in communication processes across Central Asia. In the digital era, the format of information perception is undergoing transformation, with images, infographics, short videos, and social media visuals becoming essential tools of communication. The study analyzes regional media trends, audience demand for visual content, and its correlation with cultural characteristics. Particular attention is given to the impact of modern communication technologies, the visual strategies of brands and organizations, as well as the importance of visual content in enhancing public awareness. The authors emphasize that the development of visual content in Central Asian digital communication functions not only as a means of delivering information but also as a factor in strengthening cultural identity and shaping public opinion.
