  1. Test significance: bold: p < .001, italics: p < .01, underlined: p < .05; ST unemployment: registered unemployed in 1991 or 1992; LT unemployment: registered unemployed in 1991 and 1992; I: Intercept; S: Slope; RMSEA: root mean squared error of approximation; CFI: comparative fit index; SRMR: Standardized Root Mean Square Residual; BIS: Bayesian Information Criterion; AIC: Akaike Information Criterion; Analyses were also run on a subsample, retaining full-time, part-time and not employed participants. As the effect sizes and directions did not change drastically, the broader sample was retained
