Table summary
This table displays the results of regressions of the log of annual earnings on education and prose skills, controlling for experience, gender, community size, nativity and parents' education, adult literacy and life skills survey. This information is grouped by country (appearing as row headers) and by unstandardized coefficients (appearing as column headers), calculated using β and standard error as a unit of measure.

… not applicable * p<0.10, statistically significant at the 10 per cent level p<0.05, statistically significant at the 5 per cent level * p<0.01, statistically significant at the 1 per cent level 1. Experience was calculated as age minus years of education minus six. 2. Experience squared was divided by 100. 3. Bermuda's entire population resides in urban areas, and therefore this variable was omitted from these models. 4. Individuals who reported working part-time at some point during the previous year. Notes: The response variable is the natural log of annual earnings for respondents who reported positive, non-zero earnings. The experience variables were centred at their means to make the terms orthogonal. The regressions were restricted to respondents in the labour force at the time of the survey.
