Notes to the table: (i) ***denotes statistical significance from zero at the 1 % level using a two-tailed test. (ii) Robust standard errors clustered at the household level are reported in parentheses. (iii) Other variables are included in these models but not shown here in order to conserve space (see text for details). (iv) The following variables are used as instruments in the IV and conditional IV models: the total number of other sibling migrants with secondary education and the total number of other sibling migrants residing in an external destination. (v) ^ϮThese are tests of the significance of the coefficient on the endogenous variable in the IV model which are robust to weak instruments. (vi) ^ϝ This is a Wald test of the significance of the coefficient on the endogenous variable in the IV model and is not robust to weak instruments
