CTUMS 2007–2011. Estimates from linear probability models are reported. All models include indicators for education, age, household size, language indicators, and province fixed effects. Robust standard errors (clustered at the province level) are in the parentheses. Estimates are weighted.
Significance levels: ***p<0.01, **p<0.05, *p<0.1.
