1. This generalized estimating equation model showed there were significant relationship between long-term condition and number of jobless spells, even after controlling baseline long-term condition, age, sex marital status, education and income. The adjusted odds of having a long-term condition were EXP(0.2094) = 1.233 times higher for each increase of jobless spell (p=0.0001).
