The article presents an exhaustive comparative analysis of NDVI, SAVI and NDWI spectral indices, extracted from satellite images of the Guangüiltagua Metropolitan Park in Quito. The relevance of remote sensing, using satellites such as Sentinel-2, in the monitoring of biodiversity and environmental conditions is highlighted. The research emphasizes the importance of vegetation indices, especially NDVI, to assess vegetation health and detect changes in vegetation cover. The study discusses in detail vegetation sensitivity, water identification, water stress response, soil effect compensation, and specific applications of NDVI, SAVI, and NDWI. The ability of these indices to provide crucial information on ecosystem health, water presence, and potential water stress conditions in Metropolitan Park is highlighted. The methodology applied involves the use of the Copernicus platform and the Sentinel-2 satellite, with radiometric and geometric correction procedures, as well as atmospheric correction. The results obtained reveal high NDVI values, indicating a dense vegetation cover, while NDWI suggests potential areas of water scarcity. The comparative analysis between the indices offers a deeper understanding of the relationship between vegetation and water in the park.

The general objective of this research was to analyze the preferences towards Artificial Intelligence (AI) in university professors in Ecuador, particularly those who teach the subject of Microeconomics. The methodology used was quantitative, descriptive, field-typed, and non-experimental, based on documentary research. The population consisted of 25 teachers from three state universities in the city of Guayaquil, Ecuador. The data collection technique was the survey and the instrument was a questionnaire of closed questions, which was applied through the Google Forms platform. The results found indicate that a large majority know about the use of AI in higher education; they also consider that the benefits that AI brings to education are to improve teaching, a large percentage indicated not to use AIs to teach Microeconomics, a small number of teachers who use AI, do it for data analysis through Machine Learning, the fact of the little use of this technology among teachers is mainly due to the absence of university policies on the use of artificial intelligence. Among the conclusions, the formulation of educational policies oriented to the implementation of artificial intelligence in Ecuadorian universities, the adaptation of infrastructure, and the investment of resources for this purpose are considered essential, as well as the training of teaching staff to take full advantage of this technology that is already a reality in many national and international contexts.

The purpose of this article is to evaluate the financial relevance of the economic sector in the profitability of credit unions. Information from the financial statements of 105 credit unions out of a total of 451 credit unions registered as of 2022 in Ecuador was used. The methodology used involved descriptive and inferential statistical analysis. Normality tests and the Kruskal-Wallis hypothesis test were performed to determine statistical significance in relation to profitability. The results of the descriptive analysis indicated that the financial indicators, such as liquidity, portfolio turnover, indebtedness, and profitability, were favorable for the cooperatives. In the inferential analysis, the profitability indicators complied with the assumptions of normality. In addition, it was found that there were no significant differences between these indicators in relation to the economic sectors. In conclusion, the inferential analysis revealed that financial profitability, which is linked to the investments made, is similar among credit unions, regardless of the economic sector to which they belong.

Background: The substitution of flours was proposed to determine which is more suitable for cookie production, utilizing the processing of pole and castilla beans. Methods: A randomized design (DCA) was used to create 8 treatments and a control, applying substitution percentages of 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40%. Treatments were sensorially evaluated by a panel of 30 untrained judges, followed by statistical analysis. Results: The treatment containing 40% castilla bean flour and 60% wheat flour was best rated with the following means: 3.70 in color, 3.70 in aroma, 3.77 in taste, and 3.83 in texture. Physicochemical tests resulted in carbohydrate content of 53.81%, ash content of 0.93%, fiber content of 1.90%, fat content of 23.15%, moisture content of 10.03%, protein content of 12.08%, and a pH of 6.74. The product did not exceed the maximum limits set by the INEN 2085 standard. Conclusions: It was identified that the combination of castilla bean and wheat flour is beneficial for enhancing the nutritional contribution in cookie production, rendering them suitable for human consumption.

In wireless communications, there are Rician and Rayleigh multipath phenomena, which can cause destructive interference caused by a strong dominant component. The objective of the study is to analyze how these multipath phenomena affect the Bit Error Rate (BER), using phase shift keying (QPSK), as well as 5G Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) technology to reduce or not the effect of fading to improve the BER. For the present study, the quantitative method is used to measure BER by comparative simulations of Rician and Rayleigh phenomena using different MIMO antenna configuration schemes using Matlab software. When comparing the multipath Rician and Rayleigh phenomena with QPSK modulation, it was determined that the most efficient channel is the Rician channel, since the BER is lower, performing a 4x4 MIMO antenna configuration. However, this efficiency may change if another type of modulation is used, which implies reducing the bit rate causing a reduction in bandwidth.
在无线通信中，存在瑞利（Rician）和瑞利（Rayleigh）多径现象，这些现象会造成由强主导成分引起的破坏性干扰。本研究的目的是分析这些多径现象如何影响误码率（BER），利用相移键控（QPSK）以及 5G 多输入多输出（MIMO）技术来减少或消除衰落的影响，从而提高误码率。在本研究中，使用 Matlab 软件对不同 MIMO 天线配置方案下的瑞利和瑞利现象进行比较模拟，采用定量方法测量误码率。在比较采用 QPSK 调制的多径 Rician 和 Rayleigh 现象时，确定最有效的信道是 Rician 信道，因为采用 4x4 MIMO 天线配置时误码率较低。不过，如果使用另一种调制方式，这种效率可能会发生变化，这意味着降低比特率会导致带宽减少。

Abstract Human persons are at once simple and complex: simple, because they possess a unified and indivisible essence in the form of the soul; and, complex, since this immaterial soul is conjoined to a material body, accounting for the human whole. This paper highlights the nature of this union and explores the psychology of the human person based on Thomistic philosophical tradition. Our thesis is that Aquinas’s hylomorphism, which counters in advance the claims of Descartes on human identity, offers a comprehensive understanding of the human person and provides a robust foundation that understands the human person as transcending the limitations of body and mind, and this has implications for philosophical, psychological and scientific enquiries.

The purpose of the research was to analyze the Robotic Automation of Processes as a technological tool aimed at automating auditing processes. It is a technological alternative that uses robots called bots, which are configured in a simple way and enable a digital transformation in which they can learn and imitate tasks, which are then executed automatically. Regarding the study methodology, it was a documentary research, carried out through a review of documents, scientific articles, research, web pages, among other sources. Among the main audit activities that can be performed with the application of robotic automation of processes are identified reconciliations, queries to identify the accounts to be reconciled, trial balances, list of transactions, comparison of the lists with the consolidated reports. Similarly, analytical processes can be performed, such as starting the session with working papers of previous audits, queries to identify audited amounts; internal control processes such as population tests, purchase orders, documents and invoices, verification of prices against quantity of items, generating alerts when deviations occur. Finally, there are several advantages of this technology, such as the possibility of performing advanced data analysis, considerable reduction of audit costs, due to the reduction of human errors and therefore greater productivity, since the optimization of processes allows the staff assigned to the execution of the audit to focus their efforts on more strategic activities, such as the preparation of the final audit report.

Introduction: Psychological preparation in the patient is very important before the surgical intervention regardless of the diagnosis and procedure to be performed, in this way it helps to reduce the degree of anxiety, fear and anguish presented before, during and after surgery. Providing the necessary information that the patient should know is important to clarify all types of doubts and concerns regarding the condition they present; It is necessary to inform the benefits and risks that surgical treatment entails, as well as to remain calm so as not to inhibit the administration of medication such as analgesics. Objective: Determine the importance of the psychological approach by nursing staff in pre-surgical adult patients to reduce anxiety and fear as well as reduce complications in the operating room. Methodology: A review of scientific articles from the databases PubMed, Scielo, Google Scholar was carried out, where the years of publication were considered to be from 5 years ago, in order to know the psychological preparation before surgery. Results: It was identified that psychological preparation is the fundamental phase to reduce anxiety before a surgical intervention, it helps to remain calm throughout the procedure, reducing complications and favoring the patient's prompt recovery. Conclusions: Psychological preparation towards the patient is of great importance to reduce fear, anxiety, worry, fear and stress, it must be done in a way that allows quality care to be provided with a more humanized treatment.
