Abstract

This study investigates the impact of a conditional cash transfer program in Indonesia, the Program Keluarga Harapan (PKH), on the marginal and joint distributions of child nutritional status and household expenditure 26–30 months after its implementation. The PKH increases the higher quantiles of weight-for-age z-score among children aged between 25 and 36 months. Its improvement is explained not by the rise in household expenditure due to the PKH but by the change in the association between nutritional status and household expenditure. Furthermore, the PKH strengthens the positive association between nutritional status and household expenditure.

印度尼西亚有条件现金转移对儿童营养状况和家庭支出的共同影响

本研究调查了印度尼西亚有条件现金转移计划Keluarga Harapan（PKH）在实施26-30个月后对儿童营养状况和家庭支出的边际和联合分配的影响。PKH增加了年龄在25至36个月之间的儿童的z分位数。它的改善不是因为PKH导致的家庭支出增加，而是因为营养状况与家庭支出之间的关系发生了变化。此外，PKH强化了营养状况与家庭支出之间的正相关关系。
