To achieve this objective, matching techniques, such as PSM, and reweighting methods, such as inverse probability weighting (IPW) and weighting with regression adjustment (IPWRA), were used. Subsequently, a multivalued treatment approach was adopted to measure differently the effects of different levels of IAN on school delay. The results show that severe IAN has an impact on students of both sexes, for urban and rural areas of the country. Specifically, the impacts are more pronounced for female students in urban areas (6.9 percentage points) compared to those in rural areas (6.2 p.p.). Furthermore, for male students, the impact is also relevant, with the impact being greater in rural areas (5.9 p.p.) compared to urban areas (5.5 p.p.). These findings highlight the importance of public policies that are sensitive to gender and territorial inequalities, since the effects of IAN on education vary according to the context analyzed, with a higher impact among the most socioeconomically vulnerable population.

We seek to pave the way for a deeper understanding about the normative criteria to guide the good use of evidence in macroeconomic policies. The text seeks to answer the following questions: i) To which networks or types of statements (hypotheses, models, theories, etc.) does the criterion of empirical adequacy in economic science apply?; ii) How does the formalization of language and the measurement of economic magnitudes affect the role of evidence in scientific progress in Economics? iii) How do the criteria of assessment of empirical adequacy vary according to schools of thought in Economics?; iv) what contextual factors (historical, ideological, political, etc.) could condition economists’ choices with respect to those sets of statements?; v) How is the concept of causality in economics elucidated and how can a methodologically pluralistic orientation towards causality serve macroeconomic policy decisions?; and vi) What lessons can the methodology and history of economic thought give to the governance of the use of evidence for macroeconomic policies? More than pointing to a single solution to the problem of evidence governance in macroeconomic theory and policy, this text invites us to a pluralistic attitude – though moderate – regarding: i) the concept of evidence in Economics; ii) the empirically assessable unity in economic theory and policy; iii) the concept of causality involved in theoretical and practical analyzes in macroeconomics.

Para tanto, vejamos três referências metodológicas - multidisciplinar, transdisciplinar, e interdisciplinar -, que propiciam a articulação da multiplicidade de campos de estudo, para em seguida tratar de alguns aspectos conceituais que são inerentes a esta disciplina.
