Note: The numbers in brackets are OLS standard errors; * Significant at 10%, ** 5%, *** 1%; + p-value equal or less than 0.10 tolerance level in backward stepwise regressions, implying that the variable ought not to be removed from the model. Rmax (Rmin) is the value of right digit ratio that maximizes (minimizes) the dependent variable, equal to -b1/(2×b2), computed only for significant values.
