  1. Note: The random effects probit models also include controls for: age, age squared, number of children, marriage, years of schooling and years since migration for immigrants, sector (five categories), county (21 categories), birth region for immigrants (six categories), and occupation (nine categories).
  2. The random effects probit models using the Wooldridge estimator and Mundlak corrections include means over time for age, age squared, number of children, years of schooling and years since migration. Standard errors in parentheses. ***p < 0.01, **p < 0.05, *p < 0.1.
