Figures in parentheses are the 95% confidence intervals (except for between-country variation, for which each of the numbers corresponds to the standard error and the variance.

* Statistically significant at the 0.05 level.

** The regression model including country fixed effects showed the similar findings. In addition, the ordered probit model analysis using original dependent variable (self-rated health) produced the similar findings.
