TIC, Time-Invariant Covariate; TVC, Time-Varying Covariate. a1 and c1 refer to autoregressive and lagged effects of life satisfaction, respectively, while a2 and c2 refer to the same paths for income. EST: unstandardized regression weight / correlation. 95% CI: lower bound and upper bound of the 95% confidence interval. N= 12,398 for the unconditional model and 12,402 for the model including TIC and TVC.
