<![CDATA[Digital literacy is a key competency needed by students to address the rise of political disinformation in the digital space, including on the TikTok platform. This qualitative study aims to analyze the role of digital literacy in shaping critical attitudes toward political disinformation among IKIP PGRI Bojonegoro students.

These findings contribute to strengthening digital literacy education in higher education.]]>
