Note: Data from endline survey. Each column is a separate regression. To create categorical indices, for each outcome, we create a z-score by subtracting the control group mean and dividing by the control group standard deviation. Then, we average z-scores by category and standardize again following the same procedure. We estimate treatment effects on these category indices. Simultaneous inference is corrected for using multiple inference testing. The q-values are calculated using the Benjamini-Hochberg step-up method to control for the false discovery rate (FDR). We follow the procedure outlined in Anderson (2008), and test α at all significance levels (1.000, 0.999, 0.998… 0.000). The q-value is the smallest α at which the null hypothesis is rejected.
