  1. To check for multicollinearity among some independent variables, we calculated variance inflation factors (VIFs) for all the independent variables in the model. The mean VIF for all variables in the model was 2.39 with a maximum of 3.74 for ln(GDP jt /GDP it ) and a minimum of 1.17 for Landlocked
