Notes: 0.01 - ***; 0.05 - **; 0.1 - *; OLS regressions at the individual level at the 24-month follow-up with standard errors (SEs) in parentheses clustered at the village level. All regressions include stratum fixed effects. All indices have been constructed such that higher values imply better outcomes. Please refer to the pre-analysis plan in the appendix for index creation and the construction of index sub-components. 40 individuals from baseline were lost to the 24-month follow-up, leaving 1,176 individuals who were interviewed at endline. The sample is limited to only those observations with no item non-response for any of the index components or sub-components. Robustness of impact findings to how item non-response was handled is presented in Appendix A. Missing baseline covariates were replaced with the sample mean. If more than 10% of a baseline covariate was missing, an indicator variable for missing baseline covariate was also included in the regression and reported in the table. The covariate adjustment referred to as the 'lagged dependent variable’ is the baseline value of the dependent variable in all cases, except for attendance, where we control for the baseline value of the schooling index.
