Notes: Controls in base model include age categorized as < 37, 37 to 46, 47 to 56, or 57 and older; health insurance through their own employer; prediagnosis weekly hours worked; sets of dummy indicators for race, education, marital status, having children under age 18, household income, and whether the respondent’s job is a blue-collar job; indicator variables if job requires physical effort, concentration, heavy lifting, stooping/kneeling/crouching, analysis, learning new skills, good eyesight, or keeping up with pace; and year of interview (2007 to 2011). Models that include health status controls add variables for indicators of chemotherapy or radiation at nine-month interview; cancer stage; and sf-36 physical and mental summary score and CesD-10 score at baseline. Models that include job involvement add indicator variables that the patient agrees that the job is the major satisfaction; most important events involve her work; perfectionistic about work; lives, eats, breathes her job; and very personally involved in her work.
