NB: All models include a binary indicator variable representing observations at Wave 1 to control for observed practice effects, a random slope for time, and a random intercept for the individual. Above median pCSG is equivalent to a duration of approximately 0.9+ cumulative decades of per eligible child. pCSG = potential cumulative Child Support Grant benefit. Ns represent total observations across all time points.
Adjusted for maternal age, number of CSG-ineligible children, household wealth index, maternal education level, maternal literacy, maternal country of birth, suboptimal birth spacing, and maternal marital status.
