Data confidence 70 medium
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 aims to evaluate the advantages, limitations, cultural and linguistic adaptation challenges, and overall effectiveness of the digital Denver II application. Using qualitative research methods based on a phenomenological design, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 experts who use the digital Denver II. The findings revealed that the digital Denver II offers significant advantages such as speed, practicality, and ease of access; however, technical, social, and cultural adaptation issues limit its full potential. The research emphasizes that the digital Denver II provides quick analysis and time savings. Ninety percent of the participants stated that digital applications accelerated the evaluation process. The user-friendly interface design ensures that this application is adopted by a wide range of experts. However, technical issues and the lack of digital infrastructure are the main factors limiting the accessibility of the application. In particular, limited internet infrastructure in rural areas reduces the effectiveness of the digital Denver II. Cultural and linguistic adaptation deficiencies hinder the use of the application in different communities. Adapting test content to local contexts and developing multilingual options are seen as critical to enhancing the application's effectiveness. Additionally, parents' perceptions of digital technologies and their lack of knowledge can negatively affect the adoption of the application by the community. In conclusion, digital Denver II applications have generally been considered a useful tool. However, improvements in user training, infrastructure development, and cultural adaptation are recommended to increase the application’s overall impact. These findings indicate strategic development areas for the wider dissemination of digital Denver II across a broader geography.
