Sažetak
This study uses data mining techniques to examine the effect of various demographic, cognitive and
psychographic factors on Egyptian citizens’ use of e-government services. Multi-layer perceptron neural
network (MLP), probabilistic neural network (PNN), classification and regression trees (CART), and
multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS) are compared to a standard statistical method (linear
discriminant analysis (LDA). The variable sets considered are sex, age, educational level, e-government
services perceived usefulness, ease of use, compatibility, subjective norms, trust, civic mindedness, and
attitudes. The study shows how it is possible to identify various dimensions of e-government services
usage behavior by uncovering complex patterns in the dataset, and also shows the classification abilities
of data mining techniques.
