RMS composite metrics - exploratory data analysis: Baseline modules

(update 2024-10-15)

Note: All analyses are done by round, using all respondents.

1. Correlation among select composite metrics across modules - baseline

Note:
* Varying colors show direction of coefficients (also printed). See legend.
* Blank color means the correlation coefficient is not significant with p-value >=0.1.
* Indices are in alphabetical order for comparison purposes across rounds.

Metrics for all women/households

Round 1

2. Assessment individual composite metrics by module

For each index metrics, we present the following:
1. Mean values of individual items by round
2. Correlation matrix
3. PCA results
* Percent variation explained by component/dimension
* Bi-plot of individual items with respect to the first and second components
