, , and . Each column represents the coefficients in a separate regression. The column headings indicate dependent variables. Mother characteristics include mother’s years of education, mother’s current age (and its squared term), and mother’s age at birth (and its squared term). Child characteristics include child’s age in months (and its squared term), child’s gender, child’s birth order, whether the child is plural birth, and an indicator for in utero exposure to conflict. All fixed effects include residential district, birth month-year, and survey wave fixed effects. Robust standard errors are clustered at the residential district level.
