Research has shown that improved sanitation environments can lead to better educational outcomes. Similarly, there is some evidence that school latrines may also improve school enrollment and attendance, particularly for girls. This paper explores the interaction effect of village-level latrine coverage and school latrines on child educational outcomes. The overall improved sanitation conditions from higher latrine coverage and the presence of school latrines might produce an additive effect and improve educational outcomes even further. Using multiple years of data from the Annual Status of Education Report (ASER) in India, this paper shows that there is no evidence of an additive effect. However, across multiple models, village-level latrine coverage is associated with lower school dropout rates and higher test scores, particularly among girls. School latrines do not appear to have a strong positive association with educational outcomes.

印度乡村和学校厕所与教育成果的互动

研究表明,改善卫生环境可以带来更好的教育成果。同样,有证据表明,学校厕所还可以改善入学率和出勤率,特别是对于女孩而言。本文探讨了村级厕所和学校厕所对儿童教育成果的相互作用。较高的厕所覆盖率和学校厕所的出现总体改善了卫生条件,可能产生累加效应并进一步改善教育成果。本文使用了来自印度年度教育状况报告(ASER)的多年数据,得出的结论是,没有证据表明会产生累加效应。但是,在多个模型中,乡村水平的厕所覆盖率与辍学率较低和考试分数较高相关,尤其是在女孩中。
