Notes: Coefficient estimates are taken from a probit regression as described in eq. (1), except column (6) which provides the results for a multinomial logit regression. Marginal effects are reported. Regressions are restricted to those who worked at least one week in the year prior to the survey, except column (5) which is restricted to those who worked at least 10 weeks in the year prior to the survey and column (8) which does not condition on work in the previous year. Regressions include age, race, marital status, whether the individual is included in a health insurance or pension plan in the previous year and a full set of state, year, industry, occupation, and education dummies and a constant. Robust standard errors in parentheses are clustered on veteran and year. Column (1) reports results with all controls interacted with veteran. Column (2) reports the results for a propensity score-matched sample. Columns (3) and (4) change the universe to not include years after 2002 or before 1994 respectively. Column (6) reports results from a multinomial logit regression that includes outcomes for full-time for an employer (the reference group), part-time for an employer, self-employment (full or part time) and not employed. Reported results are marginal effects for the not employed outcome. Column (7) reports results from eq. (1) with full controls where the sample is restricted to men born between 1934-1947 rather than those ages 55-64.
