SUMMARY:

This article evaluates the impact of the Bolsa Família Program on the consumption of goods that cause addiction of beneficiary households. To do so, the following variables are analyzed: (i) Proportion of spending on goods that cause addiction in relation to household income; (ii) Proportion of spending on goods that cause addiction in relation to spending on other goods; (iii) Proportion of spending on goods that cause addiction in relation to total household spending; (iv) Dummy variable that indicates whether there was consumption of a good that causes addiction. Microdata from the Pesquisa de Orçamentos Familiares (POF) for the years 2017 and 2018 are analyzed using the propensity score matching method. As robustness tests, Rosenbaum Sensitivity Analysis, Heterogeneous Effects by regions and schooling ranges are implemented.
