Note:
p < .001,
p < .01,
p < .05,
p < .10. B are OLS coefficients for continuous variables and OR are odds ratios for dummy variables. A one-unit change corresponds to a 10 hour increase. Regressions include all control variables as well as birth month and year fixed effects. Standard errors are adjusted for the presence of siblings.
