Standard Error reported in the parenthesis, **, *** indicate 5%, 1% significance level, one-sided test.
Next, Table 5 reports the regression results.
Our Probit Regression model is specified as follows:
!ℎ!"#$!

!"#$%& is the dummy variable for Public treatment, = 1, if it is Public Treatment, = 0 if it
is Private Treatment;
