  1. Note: C.I. denotes lower and upper limit of 95% confidence interval.
  2. 1 Categories were constructed to be compatible with published census figures.
  3. 2 Income categories are constructed by quintiles, where “low” income denotes the first quintile (<20%), “middle” income denotes between second and fourth quintile (20-60%) and “high” income denotes fifth quintile or above (>60%).
  4. 3 The proportions may not add up to 100% due to rounding.
  5. 4 Effect size is a statistical measure that indicates the similarity of the sample compared to the underlying population, where an effect size of 0.1 is considered “small”, 0.3 “medium” and 0.5 “large”.
  6. Statistical significance of p-values are denoted by * (p < 0.05), ** (p <0.01) & *** (p < 0.001).
