Robust standard errors in parentheses, * significant at 10%; ** significant at 5%; *** significant at 1%. All regressions in this table control for the initial household
decision making power in the baseline. The value for each item takes zero if the decision making is done by husband, one if the decision making is done by the
couple, and two if decision making is done by wife.
