baseline specification

^‡

matching on the ISCO major group (0-9) plus controlling for a binary variable indicating any change in ISCO-88 (up to four digits) in the regression (concerns tests II.1 and II.2 only)

^¥

no matching on work strain, no control for change in work strain (concerns tests II.1 and II.2 only). Control groups balanced on the first and the second moment (tests I.1, II.1, II.2), or on the first moment only (test I.2). For a full list of matching variables see tables A1 to A4.
