Abstract

Internet adoption fosters economic growth and development. Specifying policy control drivers is particularly relevant for developing countries. However, there is no consensus on the most relevant variables. We explored 33.6 million potential models to identify the most important determinants of household internet adoption using stochastic search variable selection and socioeconomic data from Medellín, Colombia. We found that monthly income, the head of household education and voting, and having a computer and cable television at home are the most relevant variables.
