  1. Model 1: Personal level + Social environment;
  2. (+) Gini coefficient (−) Female secondary education (−) Male secondary education
  3. Model 2: Personal level + Public policy;
  4. (+) Gini coefficient (−) Labour productivity (−) Old age pension
  5. Model 3: Personal level + Social environment + Public policy;
  6. (+) Gini coefficient (−) Female secondary education (−) Male secondary education (−) Labour productivity (−) Old age pension
  7. ILE: Inequality in life expectancy, (%), 2010–2015
  8. GC: Gini coefficient, (A value of 0 represents absolute equality, a value of 100 absolute), 2005–2013
  9. FSE: Female population with at least some secondary education, (% ages 25 and older), 2005–2014
  10. MSE: Male population with at least some secondary education, (% ages 25 and older), 2005–2014
  11. OPW: Output per worker, (2011 PPP $), 2005–2012
  12. OPR: Old age pension recipients, (% of statutory pension age population), 2004–201
