Notes: [1] CES-D score percentile measures the relative ranking of CES-D score within each wave. [2] Depressive symptoms is defined as CES-D score ≥ 10 in 2010 wave following Andresen et al. (1994) and Zhang et al. (2012). However, the results should be treated with caution since the CES-D in Andresen et al. (1994) and Zhang et al. (2012) has same total score but different number of items compared to CFPS 2010. [3] The covariates are the same as in Table 2 except age. [4] ***, ** and * represent statistical significance at the 1%, 5% and 10% levels, respectively.
