Notes: All reported coefficients are standardized. For the continuous covariates, the coefficient represents the change in the dependent variable associated with a 1 standard deviation change in the covariate. For the binary covariates, the coefficient represents the change associated with a shift in the variable from 0 to 1. Standard errors are shown in parentheses.
