All reported coefficients significant on the 1% level
aIncome coefficient from Fujiwara et al. (2013) [26], other coefficients from rerunning regressions with rescaled SWB
bRescaled from 0 to 10, instrument passes under- and weak identification test
cUnweighted average of Cantril’s ladder and SWLS as SWB proxy, instrument passes under- and weak identification test
dEQ-5D-5L and ICECAP-A sum scores scaled from 0 to 1
