Gorgulu, NisanFoster, VivienJain, DhruvStraub, StéphaneVagliasindi, Maria2023-03-152023-03-152023-03https://openknowledge.worldbank.org/handle/10986/39534This paper presents a meta-analysis of the infrastructure research done over more than three decades, using a database of over a thousand estimates from 221 papers reporting outcome elasticities. The analysis casts a wide net to include the transport, energy, and digital or information and communication technology (ICT) sectors, and the whole set of outcomes covered in the literature, including output, employment and wages, inequality and poverty, trade, education and health, population, and environmental aspects. The results allow for an update of the underlying parameters of interest, the “true” underlying infrastructure elasticities, accounting for publication bias, as well as for heterogeneity stemming from both study design and context, with a particular focus on developing countries.enCC BY-NC 3.0 IGOCC BY-NC 3.0 IGOINFRASTRUCTURE POLICY RESEARCHINFRASTRUCTURE LITERATURE META-ANALYSISTRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE OUTCOMESENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE RESEARCHDIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE OUTCOMESINFRASTRUCTURE ELASTICITIESICT INFRASTRUCTURE RESEARCHWorking PaperWorld Bank10.1596/1813-9450-10350
