Note: The table reports RD estimates corresponding to equation (1) using data from the 2016 to 2018 Household Survey waves conducted by INE. Results for each outcome are reported in each column. All Regressions include linear trends of the running variable on each side of the cutoff but do not include demographic controls. Triangular kernels are used in all regressions. Robust standard errors are presented in parentheses. Went hungry is coded as 1 if any household member went hungry and could not eat during the three months preceding the interview.
