Purpose - The aim of this study is determining the development level of 80 countries in the ICT, measuring the performance of countries over time and revealing the digital divisions among the countries.
Methodology – Following the methodology used by the International Telecommunication Union, ICT Development Index (ICTDEV-I) of 80 countries are calculated separately for each year from 2010 to 2016. To calculate the index and determine the weight of each indicator, the Factor analysis is used and the Principal Component Analysis is chosen. The countries are grouped according to their ICT levels to reveal and compare digital divisions among them.
Findings- The countries are ranked according to the index values and comparative analysis are presented. The size of the digital divide and whether shrink of this division among the countries is analyzed.
Conclusion- There is an increase in the index values of all countries included in the ICTDEV-I. Digital divisions are increased between developing and less developed countries.
