Robust standard errors in parentheses, * significant at 10%; ** significant at 5%; *** significant at 1%. Dependent
Variable: Index of household decision making power on what to buy at the market, expensive purchases, giving
assistance to family members, family purchases, recreational use of the money, personal use of the money, number of
children, schooling of children, and use of family planning. The value for each item takes zero if the decision making is
done by spouse, one if the decision making is done by the couple, and two if decision making is done by the respondent.
See notes under Table 1 for the exact definition of each index. Regressions in columns (1) and (3) control for the
household decision making power in the baseline (August 2003).
