Poverty cutoff is 1/4

P-values P-values derived from Wald tests examining the null hypothesis that Control = Bridges = BridgesPlus

H: Headcount ratio or incidence of multidimensional poverty (MPI)

A: Intensity of multidimensional poverty: A is calculated as total deprivation scores (summation of weighted deprivation status across indicators) among the MPI poor divided by the total number of MPI poor people

M₀: Adjusted headcount ratio: calculated as H x A. M₀ is the sum of the weighted deprivations that the poor (and only the poor) experience, divided by the total population (Alkire & Santos, 2014)
