Abstract: Abstract Information and communications technology (ICT) has a significant impact on economic growth. In this study, by using artificial neural networks (ANN) method, unlike the previous studies, the effects of the variables of information technologies on the economic growth are sorted. In addition, the dependent variables per capita income were made estimation and prediction with autoregressive ıntegrated moving average (ARIMA) and ANN models. According to the results of the analysis, the order of importance of the factors affecting economic growth; mobil phone usage rate (100%), İnternet usage rate (64.7%), fixed capital investment (51.6%), labor force participation rate (34.0%), and R&D (26.2%). Then time series analysis was done. The coefficient of determination of the values estimated from the ANN model R2 = 0.988. R2 = 0.926 for the values estimated by the ARIMA model from the time series analysis. As a result, ıt has been observed that the modeling of economic growth data with ANN gives better results than modeling with time series analysis.
