Note: This categorical variable is coded as: 0 if there are no economic rights for women in law and the government tolerates a high level of discrimination against women; 1 if women have some economic
rights; however, in practice, the government does not enforce laws effectively and a moderate level of discrimination against women is tolerated; 2 if women have some economic rights and the
government does enforce these laws effectively. However, the government still tolerates a low level of discrimination against women; 3 if all or nearly all of women’s rights are guaranteed by law with the
government fully and vigorously enforcing these laws.
