This table presents probability of remaining in the longitudinal sample estimated through linear probability models, with standard errors clustered at the community level. N= 3,433 children of target-age prior to attrition. Lower sample sizes reflect covariates that are missing or not applicable. Column 1 shows probabilities of child being followed up by treatment assignment; Column 2 presents odd ratios by baseline learning and cognition, while Column 3 interacts randomized assignment with key variables by which heterogeneity analysis was conducted throughout the paper. Household poverty is a dichotomous indicator having the value of one if the household had baseline per capita consumption levels falling below the national consumption poverty line in 2013. Northern regions include Upper West, Upper East, and Northern region. Southern regions include Western, Central, Greater Accra, Volta, Eastern, Asanti, and Brong Ahafo.
