Table shows estimated mean differences between interviewer and caregiver assessments for the six separate anthropometric outcomes. Standard errors are shown in parentheses. All models are estimated using ordinary least squares regression models with heteroscedasticity-robust standard errors to account for the non-normality of residuals clustered at the enumeration area level
