Notes.

Reference groups in the models were personality profile 2, under 25 years age group, and female gender.

† Profile 1 was characterized by low to average levels of Harm Avoidance, and high to very high levels of Persistence, Self-Directedness and Cooperativeness. Profile 2 was characterized by average-high levels of Harm Avoidance and high levels of Persistence, Self-Directedness and Cooperativeness.
