_Notes:_ Regressions are OLS models with robust standard errors clustered at the EA level. All regressions are weighted to make them representative of the target population in the study EAs. The husband quality super index is a standardized index of all other outcomes in this table (except HIV as it is defined on a smaller sample). All variables are constructed so that higher values are better, except for HIV. The cognitive test score is based on Raven’s Colored Progressive Matrices. The husband's sexual activity and marital fidelity index is constructed from three variables: number of sexual partners ever, number of sexual partners in the past 12 months and an indicator for concurrent multiple partners. Psychological distress is equal to one if the summed General Health Questionaire-12 score is equal to three or higher, and is zero otherwise. Additional details on the variables can be found in Appendix A and Appendix B. Baseline values of the following variables for the beneficiaries are included as controls in the regression analyses: age indicators, stratum indicators, household asset index, highest grade attended, and an indicator for never had sex. We restrict the sample to husbands of respondents who were surveyed during the latest household survey conducted two years after the program (Round 4). The husband quality super index regression also includes an indicator for whether any of the sub-components of the indicator are missing. Parameter estimates statistically different than zero at 99% (***), 95% (**), and 90% (*) confidence.
