Notes: HILDA wave 19, analysis sample. OLS regressions with self-control as outcome variable. In addition, specifications in all columns control for a constant and specification in column (2) controls for a maximum set of fixed effects for the state of residence. Robust standard errors in parentheses. *p < 0.1, **p < 0.05, ***p < 0.01.
