心理社会因素导致贫困持续存在，但在减贫方案中很少涉及。我们使用混合的方法来调查一个心理社会行为改变的方法，授权的世界观（EWV），在赞比亚的小农户之间的儿童福利的投资决策之间的关系。暴露于EWV三年后，逻辑回归模型结果表明，暴露于EWV与父母提供儿童基本需求的可能性增加有关，包括学费，衣服和食物。这种概率随着训练次数的增加而增加。使用匹配样本，EWV对治疗组的平均治疗效应为正且具有统计学显著性。定性结果显示，EWV增强了参与者的能动性，配偶在社区中一起工作和与他人合作的倾向，以及对自己和子女的期望。这些结果表明，心理社会制约因素普遍存在，需要采取干预措施，可持续地解决这些问题，以支持人类发展。
Psychosocial factors contribute to persistence of poverty, but are rarely addressed in poverty reduction programs. We use mixed methods to investigate the relationship between a psychosocial behaviour change approach—empowered worldview (EWV), and investment decisions in children wellbeing among smallholder farmers in Zambia. Three years after exposure to EWV, logistic regression model results suggest that exposure to EWV was associated with an increased probability of parents providing basic needs of children including school fees, clothes, and food. This probability increased with more trainings. Using a matched sample, the average treatment effect on the treated of EWV is positive and statistically significant. Qualitative results reveal EWV enhanced participant agency, spouses’ propensity to work together and with others in the community, and aspirations for themselves and their children. These results point to the prevalence of psychosocial constraints and the need for interventions to sustainably address them to support human development.
