- The dependent variable is height-for-age zscore. Estimated treatment effects using the full sample, girls, boys, low birthweight and normal/high birthweight cohorts presented. The treatment variable (Trt) is a dummy equal to one if the child had access to the midday meals program. Panel A provides results for the IV-Random Effects model and Panel B provides results for GLS-Random Effects Model. Other controls include child age, age squared, gender, zscore of first weight, zscore of birthweight, zscore of first height, pcare, ethnicity, CDC status and birth-year fixed effects either as direct controls or instruments
