Multi-country studies show only weak associations or none between digitalization and innovation, meaning institutional and market environments affect the extent to which digitalization leads to measurable innovation.
“Studies that look at more than one country show only weak associations or none at all, meaning that the institutional and market environments affect the extent to which digitalization leads to measurable innovation [26].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
