1 Assessing the impact of 4Ps on school participation of Filipino children using Propensity Score Matching (PSM) Celia M. Reyes and Christian D. Mina Making Impact Evaluation Matter: Better Evidence for Effective Policies and Programs Asian Development Bank, Manila 5 September 2014
2 Average daily wage rate of wage/salary workers by educational attainment, 2011 Php 1,200 1,137 1, Source of basic data: July 2011 LFS
3 Data 2011 Annual Poverty Indicators Survey (APIS) and July 2011 Labor Force Survey (LFS) - for the estimation of probability of participating in the 4Ps and for matching 2003 and 2006 Family Income and Expenditure Surveys (FIES), merged with January 2004 and January 2007 LFS, respectively - for the estimation of probability of being selected in the 4Ps
4 Data Data set Advantage(s) Disadvantages 2003 FIES/LFS 2006 FIES/LFS used by DSWD in the estimation of the PMT model most appropriate to provide the pre-program characteristics can only estimate the probability of being selected in the program predicted poor 4Ps the patterns found in 2003 might no longer hold in 2008 can only estimate the probability of being selected in the program predicted poor 4Ps 2011 APIS/FS can estimate directly the probability of program participation can easily satisfy the balancing tests characteristics of a large proportion 4Ps families that have been in the program in 2008 or 2009 might have been changed significantly

9 Diagnostic checking Common support - ensured through imposition of common support through the Stata syntax psmatch2, common Propensity Score Untreated Treated
10 Diagnostic checking Balancing property - checked through the following criteria: 1. % reduction in bias (after matching) in: o o propensity scores: 2003 FIES: % 2006 FIES: % 2011 APIS: % all covariates; 2003 FIES: 68-77% 2006 FIES: 68-75% 2011 APIS: 91-96%
11 Diagnostic checking Balancing property - checked through the following criteria: 2. Two-sample t-tests of means in the covariates (between treatment and comparison) > 50% are of all the covariates are not significant 3. % reduction in Pseudo R-square after matching reduced by more than 50%
12 Diagnostic checking Conditional independence - checked through sensitivity tests of hidden bias through Mantel-Haenszel bounds
13 Example: PS Model APIS; Age 6; 1-to-1 matching without replacement Mantel-Haenszel (1959) bounds for variable prop_mem6_attsch Gamma Q_mh+ Q_mh- p_mh+ p_mh e-06 Gamma : odds of differential assignment due to unobserved factors Q_mh+ : Mantel-Haenszel statistic (assumption: overestimation of treatment effect) Q_mh- : Mantel-Haenszel statistic (assumption: underestimation of treatment effect) p_mh+ : significance level (assumption: overestimation of treatment effect) p_mh- : significance level (assumption: underestimation of treatment effect)
14 Mean comparison tests By matching method - Estimated treatment effects are not significantly different across matching method for all age groups By PS model - Estimated treatment effects significantly vary across PS models

22 Recommendations (in 2012) Extend the period of assistance to existing children-beneficiaries to go beyond 5 years Cover families with children aged 15-18
23 Policy influence In the President s State of the Nation Address in July 2013, the President announced that the 4Ps will be extended to high school to cover children up to 18 years old or up to when they finish high school whichever comes first On June 2014, the DSWD started with the Modified Conditional Cash Transfer (MCCT)- Expanded Age Coverage (EAC) of the 4Ps The MCCT-EAC covers beneficiaries which are not covered by the regular CCT. As of 31 July 2014, there are 888,350 households with children and 924,066 children aged included in the program.
