Depression Treatment and Female Performance in the Labor and Marriage Markets in India

The project is a follow-up study on a 2016 Randomized Control Trial (RCT) that provided pharmacotherapy to low-income adults (primarily female) with depression in Karnataka, India. This study aims to measure the long-term impacts on the original study participants and the adult household members who were children or unmarried at baseline.

The survey will track all the original respondents from their initial localities and conduct in-person surveys to assess their current mental health, labor market performance, migration patterns, marital status, bargaining power, and intra-household conflict.
