Consider a randomized controlled trial within the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) industry in India. Researchers provided three years of recruiting services to help young women in randomly selected rural Indian villages get jobs in the business process outsourcing industry. Because the industry was so new at the time of the study, there was almost no awareness of these jobs. The researchers, in effect, exogenously increased women's labor force opportunities. (a) The researchers are trying to identify the impact of increased economic opportunity on women's family decisions. Why is it important to ensure that women's labor force opportunities are "exogenous" or random? (b) The authors find that after the program had run for a few years in the treatment regions, 32% of women aged 15-21 were married and 24% had a baby. The corresponding statistics in the control regions were 34% and 28%. Given these numbers, what was the effect of the program on marriage and fertility?
