Regressions include cohort dummies, gender, married, region dummies, income, working full time, partner working full-time, size of the city dummies. Results based on weighed regressions and robust clustered by county standard errors; 1 YSHS (years schooling high school maximum educational attainment) interacted with civic transmission; 2 YSCE (years schooling college maximum educational attainment)
The p-value of overall significance of the model is zero in all cases
***1 % significance level; **5 % significance level; *10 % significance level
