  1. Dependent variable: probability of a split household attriting (not being found) given that original household was found, and the new household split from the original household.
  2. Asterisks indicate significance of marginal effects: *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001.
  3. Marginal effects are estimated at the omitted category for all variables.
