a

estimates from hierarchical age-period cohort models with random effects for period and cohort groups.

b

effect-coded contrasts; coefficients sum to zero across the 12 age groups.

c

estimates for parental education are from a separate model that excludes the year 2006 observations; other coefficients are substantively similar.

d

For parental education, N is roughly 1500 smaller.

*

denotes p<0.05 for individual regression coefficients.

#

differences among the 12 age groups statistically significant at <0.05.
