All coefficients shown are standardized. The models are adjusted for individual sociodemographic variables: age, gender, unemployment, cohabitation status, citizenship, income, education level, presence of children in household, religiosity, and disability. The models are also adjusted for area socioeconomic status: mean household income, proportion of immigrants, and unemployment rate. ⁎ p < 0.05. ⁎⁎ p < 0.01. ⁎⁎⁎ p < 0.001.
