Using the International Standard Classification of Education 2011, educational level is classified into three categories: (i) low (categories 1–2), (ii) medium (categories 3–4), and (iii) high (categories 6–8)

aThe diagonal intercepts are odds

bThe w-parameter is a weight parameter. No valid p value can be computed, as the weight parameter is constrained between zero and one

cThe coefficients for the covariates are odds ratio’s
