Abbreviation: CI, confidence interval.

^a All models included random intercept for country and random slope for age. Estimates adjusted for complex survey design.

^b Multilevel linear regression.

^c Multilevel ordinal logistic regression.

^d Reference group is full-time working mothers.

^e Age is centered at sample mean of 62 years and standardized.
