Institutional factors were mostly significant for industrialized countries, but not for developing countries in general.

The regressions were checked for possible multicollinearity, autocorrelations, etc. (Netter etal. 1996). Typically, diffusion growth modeling studies try to explain patterns of diffusion of technology, usually over time and across a population of potential adopters. Observations of adoption or percentages of adoption are put in the form of a time series and fitted to some functional form (Fichman 1992; Mahajan and Peterson 1985). The functional form of the logistic model used to calculate the growth rate is given by National Groupings (All Countries, ICs, DCs Human Development •HDI Social Structure • GINI Index ICT Growth Rates • Cell Phones • PCs • Internet Institutional Factors • EFW Figure!.
