R2: 0.158 (adjusted to 0.153). A Poisson regression was performed with the same predictors, to confirm the best fitness of the linear regression (adapted from McCullagh and Nelder (20)). Excluded variables from this model (due to non-significance) were: gender, being professionally active and taking chronic medication. VIF, variance inflation factor for collinearity.
