Note: based on coefficients from models shown in Table 1. Predicted values (probability for binary outcomes, Z score for continuous outcomes) are calculated by fixing survey wave (1995 to 1996, 2011 to 2014) and SES percentile (10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, 90th) at the specified values, while sex and age remain at the observed values in the sample.

Standardized (mean 0, SD 1) to better compare effect size.
