Note: Standard errors in parentheses. ^*** $p < 0.01$ ; ^** $p < 0.05$ ; ^* $p < 0.1$ . Columns (1)–(3) report linear probability models where the dependent variable is a dummy variable that takes the value of 1 if the respondent reports that they are currently furloughed from their main job, and 0 otherwise. Columns (4) and (5) report the coefficients of a multinomial logit model where the omitted category is ‘employed and not furloughed’.
