For each dependent variable, the independent variable rank has been determined by ordering the absolute values of marginal effects from largest to smallest. Total rank is obtained by ordering the means of four ranks. The marginal effect has been noted with dy/dx and has been obtained from the Stata statistical package with the “mfx” command, i.e., the marginal effect at the mean value of each variable. As Likert-scale variables are concerned, the alternative command “margins” resulting in the average marginal effect provides very similar results, i.e., the rankings are not altered.
