All models control for age, marital status, occupation, religion, number of children age<5years, household size, gender, and development;

Logistic multilevel models were used to estimate social capital. This measure is only available for females;

R-to-R = rural-to-rural migration, U-to-R = urban-to-rural migration. The reference group for this set of dummy variables was non-migrants;
