a: mean adjusted for age
b: Interaction between health status and years of education: results for years of education = 12 years compared with years of education < 12 years; model adjusted for age
c: Interaction between health status and years of education: results for years of education > 12 years compared with years of education < 12 years; model adjusted for age
d: Interaction between health status and income level: results for income level between 9,900-14,300 € compared with income level < 9,900 €; model adjusted for age
e: Interaction between health status and income level. Results for income level between 14,300-20,400 € compared with income level < 9,900 €; model adjusted for age
f: Interaction between health status and income level. Results for income level > 20,400 € compared with income level < 9,900 €; model adjusted for age.
† Results from multiple linear regression models adjusted on age; reference group = no health condition
