Figure 3. Estimated Difference in Height-for-Age z Score From Linear Regression–Decomposition of Open Defecation and Access to Boiled or Filtered Drinking Water for Children Aged 0 to 18 Years in India.

These panels show the differences in estimated height-for-age z score associated with change in village-level open defecation from 32.2% (sample mean) to 0% (ie, elimination of open defecation) (A, B) and change in access to boiled or filtered drinking water from 46.5% (sample mean) to 100% (ie, universal access to boiled/filtered drinking water) (C, D). Dots indicate means; whiskers, SDs.
