| Abstract: | This paper examines the influence and direction of social and economic determinants of the HIV/AIDS global epidemic across nations and assesses each country’s efficiency in battling the pandemic. The initial dataset consisted of 151 countries with five dependent variables and 90 explanatory variables (reduced to 50 after extensive exploratory data analysis of missing value patterns, undesirable multi-colinearities and multivariate outliers). |
