Simple (unadjusted) and multivariate (adjusted) OLS regression analyses.

Exact P-values in parentheses. The covariate types in Models 2–5 are listed in table 1. Interaction with earlier welfare indicates that we consider the interaction effect between previous mental problems and a dummy for having received social welfare benefit in any of the 5 years before the interview. Model 4 shows the associations between previous mental problems and later payment difficulties for individuals with no uptake of social welfare benefits in any of the last 5 years.
