Notes: The results present IV regressions, the instruments used are the percent of neighbors that received various amounts of the incentives that reside within the same VCT zone as the respondent and attends the same church. Robust standard errors are clustered by village. Additional controls not presented here but included in the regression include: age, age squared, HIV status, whether the individual got an incentive, as well as the amount of the incentive received, a simulated average distance to the HIV results center, a dummy variable indicating if the individual lives further than 1.5 km from the nearest VCT as well as district fixed effects. Asterisks denote the significance of the coefficients:

***

indicates significance at the 1% level;

**

significance at the 5% level; and

*

denotes significance at the 10% level.

a

The variable “% In Same Church” is defined as the percent of individuals that reside within the same region as the individual and attends the same congregation as the respondent and went to receive their HIV results. The variable “% In Different Church” is defined as the percent of individuals that reside within the same region as the individual and attend a different congregation as the respondent and went to receive their HIV results at the VCT center.
