Bilgi, tarih boyunca toplumların zenginliğinin en önemli kaynağı olmuştur. Daha fazla ve daha nitelikli bilgiye sahip olan ve bilgiyi etkin bir siyasal, ekonomik ve sosyal örgütlenme ile doğru biçimde kullanabilen toplumlar diğerlerinin önüne geçerek daha yüksek bir refah seviyesine erişmiştir. Bu çalışmada bilgi ekonomisi performans  göstergeleri ve seçilmiş makro ekonomik değişkenler arasındaki ilişki tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Bu amaçla ele alınan OECD üyesi 34 ülke için derlenen veri seti kanonik korelasyon analizi ile değerlendirilmiştir. Yapılan analizler sonucunda değişken setleri arasında anlamlı ve güçlü bir ilişki olduğu görülmüştür.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Bilgi Ekonomisi, Bilgi ve İletişim Teknolojileri (BİT), Kanonik
