cpos-170	Klaus, Daniela; Tipandjan, Arun	Son Preference in India: Shedding Light on the North-South Gradient	2014	26	.pdf	application/pdf	11863	562	52	The indirect effects of respondent’s residence on the son preference are provided in section IV of Table 1: Mediated by region- specifi c background variables and the cost-benefi t structure of children respond- ents in north urban (-0.165), south rural (-0.140), and south urban India (-0.199) have signifi cant lower rates of son preference than mothers in north rural India (reference group). The region effect is, however, only partly mediated because signifi cant direct ef- fects remain in existence (section I, Table 1): Corresponding to the indirect effects, south rural (-0.232) and south urban respondents (-0.210) are revealed as having a lower rate of son preference than respondents in north rural India (reference group).	cache/cpos-170.pdf	txt/cpos-170.txt
