Note: Coefficient estimates are taken from a probit regression as described in eq. (1). Marginal effects are reported. Regressions are restricted to those who worked at least one week in the year prior to the survey. Regressions without the full controls include age, race, marital status, and a full set of state, year, education and age dummies. Full controls also include whether the individual is included in a health insurance plan or pension plan in the previous year and a full set of industry and occupation dummies. Robust standard errors in parentheses are clustered on veteran and year. Some college or more includes some college and college educated, those with higher education are not included.
