Note: See Note on Table 4. (1) Includes respondents who are in one or two waves of the sample; (2) Includes respondents who are in one to six waves; (3) Controls for individuals who are in all eight waves of the sample. Each column reports separate estimates from a dynamic panel correlated random effects linear probability model (DPCRE LPM).
