Notes: Cluster-robust standard errors reported in parenthesis. Clustering is at the enumeration level ∗, ∗∗, and ∗∗∗ indicate significance at the 10%, 5% and 1% significance levels respectively. The “Asset poverty” indicator is a dichotomous variable equal to one if a household’s wealth score is below the 40th percentile. The wealth score is constructed from the first principal component of a common set of asset indicators: electricity access, radio ownership, TV ownership, improved floor material, ownership of a flush toilet and ownership of a basic toilet. See the text for a description of the models and other variables used in these regressions.
